*Registration required.<br />*About 23 miles round trip. 9:45 start from Veirs Mill Park. We will ride west past Garrett Park and the old White Flint Mall to Bethesda Trolley Trail (BTT) and then ride south on BTT, residential roads, and CCT to lunch (outside) in Bethesda. After lunch, about 10 miles back to VMP on mostly roads and ~1 mile on Rock Creek Trail. <br />*Ride will be C pace, averaging ~10-12 mph overall, faster on flat roads &amp; slower when hills and/or paved trail; 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 15 people.<br /> • Helmets are required.<br /> • No earbuds or headphones.<br /> • Road/Drop handlebars require end plugs or similar.
