This awesome ride is back in action in 2025. It’s still a ride from DC out to the parks and to the leafy green streets of the surrounding areas - no car needed - with some new added perks, since cycling is only as enjoyable as the coffee and tailgating.
As always, the route features loops with lots of rolling hills and a few lung-inhaling climbs. While we look forward to the joys of spinning harmoniously and consciously in pace lines, we are recreational riders and not racers, so we’re prioritizing socializing before and after the ride itself.
We encourage all to arrive early before the 10:00 AM ride start to enjoy coffee and a pastry at Open City Coffee House (a hop-skip-and-a-jump from the Woodley Park metro station on the red line). Enjoy a post-ride tailgate at Aslin in Logan Circle (1740 14th St NW).
This is a no-drop ride. Please see the Potomac Pedalers ride class table for pacing:
