 Changed the Catagory to "All pace" As I'm  planning to ride Sat. & Sun. As a result, I'm not sure what pace I'll be able to maintain(which is why it's not listed)

Somewhat untested route I got from Phil F. I changed the start from Catonsville to E.C. I've done the return from D.C. twice. Initially, I was thinking of having lunch mid-ride in / near D.C. After giving it some thought, I decided 1 stop probably wouldn't be enough for some folks. There's a Shell, 7-11 & Little Caesar's @ mile 32. There's another Shell & a Dunkin @ mile 69. Open to suggestions, otherwise I'll stop @ these places. I'm mostly doing this as a test ride. However, this might be the ONLY time I post it. Please note & take into consideration, the category 14-15 mph when considering whether or not to join me. Given my past experience w/GPS problems, I'll most likely print a few cue sheets as a back up. Email me if you have any questions. 

 


pgfeldman Looking at the profile, I think it might be better to run in reverse. You would trade the hills for more traffic at the end, but otherwise I think that could work nicely.

psycolist but....I like hills... I'd much rather do the trafficky part in the am...when there's less traffic :)
Having said that, I've gone down thru Savage & used bike trails in the beginning a few times. However, I've since decided that I'd rather deal with the traffic / cars, than the early morning dog walkers & oblivious / headphone wearing joggers.
