33 miles on mostly flat paved trails. Good for intermediate and advanced riders, and advanced beginners ready for a longer ride.
This ride has it all! We will start in College Park and loop around the beautiful Lake Artemesia. Then we will ride along the Northwest Branch Trail until we join the Anacostia River Trail (ART). We'll have brief stops at Kenilworth Aquatic Gardens and Kingman Island, and then ride past the Navy Yard to a rest stop (and lunch) at Potbelly at Yards Park. On our return, we’ll cross the river over the Frederick Douglass Memorial Bridge (which has a separate and wide pedestrian/bicycle lane) and ride along Anacostia Park Drive before doubling back on our route. This ride always delights showing unique places in the city. The ride is suitable for all types of bikes. As with all our rides there will be a leader and sweep and no one will be left behind.
After completing registration, you will receive a confirmation email with additional event details and start location.
There is limited space, so please register early. Although this ride is FREE for Premium Members, you do need to register.
35 miles, elevation 2,100 feet. For intermediate and advanced riders. Big rolling hills with a few challenging climbs.
This is one of our favorite rides! The route is through the stunning Virginia countryside, past horse and cattle farms, apple orchards, vineyards, old churches and cemeteries. At the beginning and end of the ride, we will travel a few miles on a highway with a roomy shoulder but mostly we will be on rolling hills and moderately hilly country roads. There are a few breathtaking (literally!) climbs, but well worth the effort. We’ll stop for lunch at the Orleans Market where farmers, farriers and cyclists meet. This is a no- drop ride, with a leader and a sweep and no one will be left behind.

39 miles, out and back, nearly flat on the wonderfully re-surfaced C&O Canal Towpath. Good for advanced beginners (who can do the distance) and above. Note: we are also offering a 28-mile version of this ride.
Join us for an easy-going, moderately paced ride on finely crushed gravel along the delightfully tree-lined and sun dappled C & O Towpath from White’s Ferry to Brunswick. This beautiful ride hugging the Potomac River is a real treat in the late fall with great views of the river as we ride. We’ll stop for lunch in Brunswick at Beans in the Belfry before turning around. (You can also bring your own lunch.) Heading back to White's Ferry is a subtle downhill, enough to fly back home! All bike types are suitable.
