Westside Parks and Trails - and Stormwater Management


Details
Join us for a casual ride through several lesser-known parks west of I-270. These parks are hidden gems with nice trails through woods and along creek beds. We will bike about 9 miles through Wootton's Mill Park (twice), Horizon Hill Park, and Potomac Woods Park. Because these parks all follow creek beds, the ride is a bit hilly: we will ride down to the park, ride along the creek and then ride back up again.
A special guest speaker, Heather Gewandter, from the City of Rockville, will join us at Horizon Hill Park to tell us how these parks help with stormwater management.
