Details
Join DJ Battle, Sean and John Hartsfield for the Friends & Miles 2026 DMV Labor Day Ride
You're invited to pedal and groove with some DMV All-Stars for the 2026 Labor Day Ride. This traditional ride spans over a decade. Your participation keeps it alive.
When = Monday, Sept 7, 2026
Pedal time = 9am
Start Location = 501 Watkins Park Dr (Perrywood Elementary School)
Distance = 55 miles
Pace = Your pace
**Route = https://ridewithgps.com/routes/48205968**
Brief info = Bring a ride partner or several. This ride is party pace until we arrive onto Dower House Rd. Once we cross over the intersection of Pennsylvania Ave the ride is open (I'll call "Ride On") for any pace that you desire!
Rest stop = The Baden Store located on Brandywine Rd will be a good "optional" break/rest stop for you and definitely for me! Also there is a second rest stop, optional once we finish with Croom Rd and arrive at route 301/Osborne Shopping Center. Historically we break/regroup at the Exxon gas station. Because, Croom Rd always gets a vote!
Hope to see ya there! A safe ride is the best ride 💯 Any questions, reach out to DJ Battle, John or Sean
This is a self-supported ride. This is not a newbie ride.
Don't bike off more than you can handle before giblets and gravy. No SAG. No Sweepers.
