This is a smart-guided tour route that can actually be ridden any day or time, solo or with others. It is only posted with a repeating set time and date with a tour leader to fit the Meetup format, and, more importantly to encourage you to get out and ride when it is convenient for you. If you are going to ride it and would like the company of others, then simply RSVP and post in the comments when it is that you are going to ride - date and time.

You will need a smart-phone (fully charged battery). It is recommended to have a handle-bar mount for your smart-phone and a battery backup.

Take pictures/videos and share. Have fun.

This is a repeating event on the calendar, but the date and time does not necessarily need to be what is posted. If you are interested in riding with a group, then simply RSVP and leave a message in the comment section giving the date and time you would like others to join you. If you are interested in riding by yourself, or with your private group of friends, then simply do it.

The mission of this format is to create a catalog of free group tour routes available for CycleNuts to ride as a group, or solo, in an area spanning several states. The goal is to get people out cycling either in groups or solo. The vision is a cycling community with resources available for bike tours, bike talk and a format for lives experienced at the speed of bike.

About CycleNuts Group Tours

What to expect - Casual social cycle touring where exercise is optional, everybody finishes together, and nobody is dropped, abandoned, or left to fend for their self (unless they wish to be).

• Trail-side breaks
• Eating and drinking
• Picture taking and posing
• A comfortable 11MPH pace.

Helmets are not mandatory - BareHeaded Bikers are welcome. CycleNuts tours give preference to bikeways - bicycle trails and protected bicycle lanes. Routes may include dedicated bicycle lanes on streets, bicycle ‘friendly’ streets, and of necessity, regular streets, parking lots, sidewalks, and unpaved trails. Darkness may be experienced on evening or early morning rides. Lights in good working order at all times on CycleNuts tours are a great idea – to be seen and to see!

SAG-free - CycleNuts tours, including travel and over-night accommodations, are self-supported with the slightest of guidance. SAG is not provided. Carpools and caravans are individual choices. Emergency road support – if necessary – may be a creative, collective group effort or you may need to fend for yourself. Be prepared with options.

Recommended Gear - A bike (bi, tri, tandem, E, recumbent, or cycle/trailer rig ). Protective gear of your choice. ID. Front and rear lighting. Communication device. Spare tube. Patch kit. Air pump. Wrench kit. Cycle lock. Water. Energy bar. Funds for refreshment breaks and emergencies. Sun screen. Pest repellent.

Recommended Preparation – Pre-check (before you load that bike for transport to the starting spot) brakes, tire pressure, lights, battery condition, and rideability. Consider what you are wearing on tour and what you may need for changing weather conditions​.

Experience why Wildwoods Beach of Cape May consistently wins Best Beach and Best Boardwalk awards on this 10-mile Smart-guided bikeway tour.

The tour route is a 10-mile There-and-back* tour - 92% bikeway - mostly level route - oceanfront tasty spot towards the end. It includes the legendary Wildwoods Boardwalk and Beach, an amazing combination of things to see and do. Make this an early adventure because the boardwalk is open to bicycles between 5 AM and 12 Noon. The parking location is free. The beach is free. The boardwalk is free. The sun is free - and there is lots of it on this mostly unshaded tour.

The tasty spot is pet-approved on Bring Fido for those touring with their furry friend (details provided with tour ticket). Wildwoods Beach has a dual dog - small dog/large dog - exercise area plus a spectacular section of ocean beach set aside for them.

Points of Interest :

• Sunset Lake - On the other side of the island is a lake known for spectacular sunsets and calm, smooth waters.
• Atlantic Ocean - hands down the nation's favorite oceanfront vacation destination - based on vacation travel data. Her warm waters, soft sandy beaches, moderate-sized waves, and hundreds of entertainment, recreation, and nature preserves dotting America's eastern coastline give her the edge over the Pacific Ocean, the Gulf of Mexico, and the Great Lakes coastlines.
• Wildwoods Beach - legendary beach, at some points 500 yards deep, known for its quality sand and well-kept condition. Bonus - this is a tagless free beach which is not common in New Jersey.
• Wildwood Boardwalk - the 19th-century beginnings of a few planks along the beach became one of the nation's most renowned vacation destinations. 38 blocks of award-winning oceanfront real estate with all the entertainment bells and whistles that can be fit into 2 miles of beach make this boardwalk a popular vacation spot.
• Ocean Oasis Water Park - this waterpark built on a deep oceanfront pier with its own beach area makes hot summer days all that more enjoyable.
• North Wildwood Sea Wall - marks the island's north end where the ocean pounds away at its hardest. It is a scenic spot with expansive ocean views.
• Hereford Inlet Lighthouse - this historical 1874 operational lighthouse is open for tours, and great ocean views.

• Morey's Piers Amusement Park - classic beach amusement park.

About this Event

### Eastside D.C. Bikeways

#### - a Smart-guided Selfie Cycle Tour

Immerse into D.C.'s best-kept secret - a collection of bikeways woven throughout its consistent award-winning inner-city park system.

The District of Columbia (D.C.) may be one of America's most toured locations. Especially, in the Washington area where there is no shortage of touring companies to help tourists see what it is all about. This tour is different than all the rest. It is a smart-guided tour*. And, it takes you away from downtown Washington to explore the surrounding park bikeways. Did I mention award-winning parks - year after year?

*Why choose a Smart-guided Selfie Cycle Tour?
You get all the benefits of a guided tour without the drawbacks of a tour guide, other tourists, time restrictions, and a rigid tour agenda. With this smart-guided tour, you can go when you want, at your speed, and hang out at a spot as long as you wish. You can even wander off the planned route and the smart guide will get you back on track when you are ready.

Natural beauty is the highlight of this bikeway tour. A large tour segment travels along the resilient Anacostia River on wide bikeways with open riverfront views.

Anacostia Park runs the length of the east side of the river, where you may catch the festivities of outdoor sports, family picnics, and cookout aromas. It is home to Kenilworth Aquatic Gardens, a National Park Service gem adorned with boardwalks, lotus blooms, lilies, other marsh flora, dragonflies, beavers, and other marshland wildlife.

On the west side of the river, outdoor sports, people fishing, city sounds, docksides, and river traffic become part of the eclectic symphony of nature and civilization cohabitating on this beautiful stretch of riverfront. Picturesque Kingman Lake and Kingman Lake Island connect to this side of the tour route upon wide wooden boardwalks giving the tourist a unique perspective of the historical and ever-changing Kingman Lake area.

A midway tasty waterfront spot is included in the tour route which is friendly to furry friends if you happen to be touring with yours (found on Bring Fido). Details are included with the tour links.

The route follows the lay of the land which is level with only 174' of climbing over 14 miles. It is an 83% bikeway floop (like a loop, but flattened in the middle - a floop) and mostly unshaded. In some short segments the route shares the road with motor vehicles. As usual, the tour comes with the CycleNuts 50% downhill guarantee. There are a few segments where you might use your bike gears, but nothing to work up too much of a sweat about. Speaking of sweating - it's optional. You set your pace, starting time, and touring agenda with CycleNuts' expert smart-guided cycle tour pattern.

About this Event

### Valley Forge National Historical Park Bikeways

#### - Smart-guided Selfie Tour

Along with American history buffs, cycle tourists will enjoy touring this national treasure chock full of scenic vistas, and great bikeways.

The 3,500-acre Valley Forge National Historical Park is amazing to explore, especially on a bike tour! Visitors can peek into American history with General George Washington's headquarters and an encampment of the Continental Army during the American Revolutionary War.

This is also home to the National Memorial Arch, modeled after Rome's Arch of Titus. Dedicated in 1917, this grand structure memorializes the triumphant arrival of General Washington and the Continental Army during the winter of 1777-78.

Natural beauty also adorns the tour route. Along with the scenic park grounds the Schuylkill River and Perkiomen Creek provide ample waterside vistas to take in along the way. The tour also visits Lower Perkiomen Valley Park, a popular 107-acre area for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts.

The tour comes in two lengths - 15-miles and 31-miles. Both options explore Valley Forge National Historical Park. The longer tour is more in-depth and travels further along the Schuylkill River Bikeway.

A tasty spot towards the end of the tour is included, which is friendly to furry friends if you happen to be touring with yours (found on Bring Fido). Details are included with the tour links.

The route follows the lay of the land which is mostly flat with only 400' of climbing over 15 miles on the Short tour and 885' of climbing over 31 miles on the Long tour. Both tours are an 83% bikeway loop mostly on paved bikeways with some crushed stone segments, and about 50% shaded. In some short segments the route shares the road with motor vehicles. As usual, the tour comes with the CycleNuts 50% downhill guarantee. There are a few segments where you might use your bike gears, but nothing to work up too much of a sweat about. Speaking of sweating - it's optional. You set your pace, starting time, and touring agenda with CycleNuts' smart-guided tour.
