About this event

*Registration required.<br />*~26 miles. 9:45 start from Veirs Mill Park. We will ride south on Beach to Broad Branch Rd in DC and then back north to Parkway Deli for an outside lunch at ~mile 18. After lunch, a little over 7 miles back to VMP. Ride will be almost entirely on roads (some sections closed to cars), with only ~1 mile on paved Rock Creek Trail.<br />*Ride will be C pace, averaging ~11-13 mph overall, faster on flat roads &amp; slower when hills; see the Ride Class Table (https://www.potomacpedalers.org/content.aspx?page_id=22&amp;club_id=495413&amp;module_id=452207 ) for more info on ride classes and average speeds.<br /> **Ride Rules:<br />• Participation is limited to those who have been fully vaccinated against COVID. According to the CDC, you&#39;re not considered fully vaccinated until it&#39;s been at least two weeks since your second dose of a two-dose series like Pfizer&#39;s or Moderna&#39;s vaccine, or it&#39;s been two weeks since you received a single-dose vaccine like Johnson &amp; Johnson (aka Janssen).<br />• Registering for ride required at least by day before ride and participation is limited to first 12 people.<br />• Helmets are required.<br />• No earbuds or headphones.<br />• Road/Drop handlebars require end plugs or similar. (I don’t want to ever see a handlebar take a core sample out of anyone’s thigh).<br />• Also, see PPTC “RIDE GUIDELINES DURING COVID-19” at https://www.potomacpedalers.org/content.aspx?page_id=22&amp;club_id=495413&amp;module_id=448936<br />*Social ride where we try to stay within sight. However, if you prefer to ride at your own (faster or slower) pace, then please let me know &amp; I will bring a printed cue sheet for you.<br />*Don&#39;t forget face mask, lock, helmet, &amp; lunch money/CC. Please arrive in time to roll @9:45.
