Slightly warmer and more sheltered from the cold, this ride offers a different experience that the usual county rides. The group stays together as it rides through many interesting northern Baltimore City neighborhoods/areas including Cedarcroft, Homeland, Roland Park, Clipper Mill, Woodberry, Charles Village, Druid Hill Park, Maryland Zoo @Baltimore, Jones Falls Trail (paved), Loyola & Johns Hopkins Universities. There are several short steep climbs on the route. Rest stop will be @Subway in Charles Village.
