Washington DC Riders
 

Hi Washington DC Riders,

I will be in the area from Oct 6-9th for job training and would like to
ride with some locals on my off time.

Monday the 6th I will be available from noon on and the other days will
be avalible after 5:00 PM.

Should have my Torker DX 24 with me, my KH 29r is to big for my large
suitcase. I perfer Muni but could do a street ride of the local sites
or a nice rails to trails.

I have been riding for about a year and a half after a 30 year layoff.


Thanks,

Eddie

I live in Germantown, MD which is about a 40 minute drive from downtown
DC. There are some really nice muni trails out here. If you have a
car and want to head out here on the afternoon of the 6th I can ride
with you. The evening rush hour is bad in this direction so after 5 pm
on the other days would not work very well.

I live in Maryland about 15 minutes from the DC border. I'm mostly into
urban trials and street, but I have a muni. If an event is organized on
I may attend based on how school affects my schedule.

I'm close to DC as well. If you want Muni, there are a few trails out
in Northern VA - Fountainhead, Wakefield park, and Difficult Run/Great
Falls. I wouldn't be able to meet up on that Monday due to work, but I
could get out of work a little bit early to meet up on one of the other
days.

i guess we have a few more maryland riders than we did last time i
checked.

i have mondays off, and would love to do some sort of ride that day

i presume you won't have a car with you. there aren't really any muni
trails that are metro-accessible. however, if we do decide to do muni,
i may be able to pick you up in DC and drive to wherever.

in the meantime, we MD (and NoVa and DC) riders should do something

Germantown should be good. there is Schaeffer Farms, which has ~12mi of
XC trails. it might not be quite as interesting as fountainhead in some
ways, but at the same time, i think it would involve less walking up
steep hills. there's also Black Hills Regional Park, which is perhaps
10 miles (by roads) north of Germantown. Black Hills is a bit rockier
and hillier than Schaeffer, and has fewer miles of trail (i think like
8-10 total). There is a connector trail between the two that would be
7 miles each way, but is currently closed due to construction.

Black Hills Park borders Germantown. There are trails right behind my
house in Germantown that lead up into the park. The trails there are
hillier and rockier than Schaeffer Farms but I think more interesting
and fun.
