About this event

Expect mostly well-maintained dirt roads with occasional potholes, washboard, and possible recent maintenance that could leave loose dirt or gravel on the surface. Bull Run Mountain features a steep climb and a long descent. Recommend gravel or cyclocross tires for comfort and safety. Temps are expected to be comfortable in the 70’s, but there are no stores on route, so start with a full tank and bring drinks and food you may need. We’ll take a break at Mickie Gordon Park, mile 25. Ride starts on Stuart St, The Plains, next to the RR tracks. On-street parking also is available near the coffee shop. This is intended to be a social/casual ride with some regrouping. I expect to average about 12.5 mph. You’re welcome to ride your preferred pace but please bring a ride-buddy if you’re concerned about the pace. Mike McCarley, 703.218.0707, mccarleym218@gmail.com.
