Rock Creek -- Bethesda Trolley -- Capital Crescent -- with E-Bike Lovers

NEW-ish trail: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/44902810

22 miles; Bathrooms beginning, middle and end. Lunch stop @ Fletcher's Cove/Boathouse @ 14.5 miles.

Note: Wednesday Rides always meet at 10:30, and we bike at 10:45!

For this Wednesday blow-out we follow the newish ride mapped for our Annual E-Bike Lovers Picnic/Potluck. The trail, just under 22 miles long, begins at Picnic Grove 6 in Rock Creek Park, continues on Rock Creek Trail, then turns west to the Bethesda Trolley Trail, and then south on the Capital Crescent down to Fletcher's Cove. There, we will weave our way north back through DC to the starting point.

Please charge your batteries, as we will be biking in some hilly terrain. "Analog" unassisted bikes always welcome.

Bring snacks, lunch, and plenty of water. Check weather and dress appropriately.

Our lunch break will be at 14.5 miles at Fletcher's Cove. No locks are required as bikes will remain in our sight.

As always, this event is self-directed. Consider downloading the Ride with GPS route and app to maintain your independence. The group stops a few times for slower riders to catch up. The distance will be 22 miles or shorter any time you are fully satisfied with biking for the day.

For the E-bike Lovers group to be successful, we need to grow our membership carefully. Please feel free to invite other E-bike lovers, spread the word, and let's have fun.

As usual, non-assisted bikers are most welcome.
