We're excited to offer this fantastic ride with gorgeous scenery in Clarke County, VA which is nestled in the Shenandoah Valley. We'll ride past working farms, old country estates and through historic towns, with the mountains in the distance. We even make a brief foray into West Virginia. This ride is well worth the drive to get there!

10 or 19 miles, minimal elevation on Beach Drive (largely closed to cars), quiet neighborhood streets and a paved trail. For Beginner Riders who want to ride with a group and begin to increase their riding distance. Leisurely pace (8 - 10 miles per hour).
Have you wanted to ride with a group but you weren't sure you were ready or that you could ride far enough? This is the ride for you! On this social-paced ride, you'll enjoy the beauty of Rock Creek Park where most of the road is closed to traffic. We'll start on quiet streets in Kensington and then the shorter ride will head north on Beach Drive (in Maryland), while the longer ride will head in the opposite direction. After turning around at the mid-points, we'll meet up again at BabyCat Brewery for more fun. Before starting the ride, we'll go over tips for riding in a group and riding safely. (Note: this is not a "how to ride class.") This is a no- drop ride, with a leader and a sweep and no one will be left behind. Suitable for all bicycle types.

33 miles, 1800 feet elevation. Mostly rolling hills with a few challenging climbs. For Intermediate and Advanced Riders.
This ride takes us through the scenic countryside around Warrenton, VA by working farms, creeks, wineries and historic civil war sites. We’ll also ride on the Warrenton Branch Greenway and by Airlie House, a conference center with a rich history. The ride ends after passing through Vint Hill Farms Station–formerly an Army intelligence (spy!) station during and after WWII–but now the site of numerous private businesses including a craft winery, a brewery, and the Cold War Museum. This ride is on mostly rolling hills, with a couple of challenging climbs. As with all WWO rides, there will be a leader and a sweep, and no one will be left behind.
19 miles mostly on closed roads and paved trails with a few short, steep climbs on residential streets. Suitable for advanced beginners and above on road or hybrid bikes.
What a fun ride! Leaving from Bethesda, we will travel on residential roads, bicycle trails and the now permanently closed-to-traffic roads of Rock Creek Park to arrive at the National Zoo. Once there, we will receive a special tour by our ride leader who also volunteers at the zoo and will provide us with the inside scoop on zoo residents and conservation efforts. We’ll have lunch at the zoo and warm up before heading back to Bethesda along the Capital Crescent Trail (up a long but gradual hill). As with all our rides, we will have a leader and sweep, and no one will be left behind.

Join us for a great ride in Virginia, near Lorton. This ride visits Gunston Hall, Pohick Bay Regional Park and Mason Neck Park with views of the Potomac River and Belmont Bay. Mason Neck Park is a major refuge for bald eagles, osprey and other birds that migrate through the area. This is also the site of historic Native American settlements and early European settlers. The ride is mostly flat on bike trails with just two hills. Suitable for all bicycle types. As with all WWO rides, we will have a leader and sweep and no one will be left behind.
