https://ridewithgps.com/routes/47114689
17.8 miles on protected biking lanes. Picnic is at Glencarlyn Park, some 12 miles into the ride. Toilets are in the beginning, middle and end of the ride.

PLEASE NOTE: Wednesday rides meet at 10:30 am. We leave at 10:45 am.

We start this Wednesday cycling adventure at the Washington Sailing Marina in Arlington, VA. The route takes us up the Mount Vernon Trail and runs parallel to the Potomac River towards the Theodore Roosevelt Island parking lot. This section of the trail offers stunning views of the National Airport, the Potomac River, and the Washington, D.C. skyline.

We continue on the the Custis Trail, a well-maintained path adjacent to Interstate 66, where you will experience a gradual climb. This part of the trail is known for its smooth pavement and well-marked lanes.

We ride until we reach the intersection with the Washington & Old Dominion (W&OD) Trail, one of the region's most extensive and popular trails. The W&OD Trail offers a scenic and peaceful ride through suburban and natural landscapes.

As you pedal along this trail, enjoy the lush greenery and the occasional sight of local wildlife.

The picnic stop is at Glencarlyn Park, a hidden gem in Arlington that offers a perfect blend of natural beauty and recreational facilities. The picnic spot is near the main pavilion, equipped with tables, grills, and ample space for relaxation.

Glencarlyn Park is an ideal picnic spot, surrounded by lush trees and a creek. We return to the Mount Vernon Trail from the park, following part of the Four Run Mile Trail to the Washington Sailing Marina.

Remember to charge your battery, check tire pressure and brakes, and bring plenty of water. No lock will be necessary as our bikes will remain in view the entire time.
