This ride goes from the Davidsonville Park and Ride (DVP) in the counter clockwise loop. The ride leader will sag the ride and maintain no more than a 10 mph pace. The ride length is 37 miles over a relatively flat terrain with a few hill which are mostly rolling hills. The very hilly streets in the area, e.g. St. George’s Barber Road are avoided. Note that the park and ride no longer has port-a-potty’s so if need-be make a restroom stop beforehand.
There is a snack stop about 20 miles into the ride at the High’s gas station /convenience store at the intersection of Muddy Creek and Owensville/Galesville Road (Route 255) which has a public restroom (and ice cream!-yum). There is a scenic overlook at the end of Galesville Road that is a planned stop before returning on Galesville Road. As for all rides, a helmet is required to protect our precious heads. Please arrive at the park and ride ~20 minutes beforehand to sign-in, pick up a cue sheet map, check you bikes, and get any final instructions. If you enter the park and ride from the entrance/exit at the light bear right (the ‘old’ lot) and head to the end of the lot near the entrance/exit that has no traffic light.
