Loudoun County Scenic but Hilly Ride

Arrive: 9:00 am
Pedal: 9:15 am

Join us for one of Bike Me DC's famous rides - a challenging ride through the hills and towns of Loudoun County, followed by a visit to Creek's Edge Winery. (http://creeksedgewinery.com/). The weather looks to be fantastic for Sunday, which should make most of the ride very enjoyable.

This ride covers many of the challenging hills (e.g. Taylorstown Road and Stumptown) as well as beautiful scenery in the area. This is a ride for everyone. You can do ride A with the big hills or B where there are no big hills.

While parts of the ride will be challenging, you will be rewarded by great scenery, friends, and a great social at Creek Edge Winery after the ride.
