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.
