📚 Do you love reading, but wish you had a structure and a community to share your insights with? Join our small circle of curious minds (just 4 members per gathering) as we come together for an hour of focused reading—in the calm setting of a library or the cozy atmosphere of a café. Here’s how it works: First part: Quiet reading on your own—bring a book you’re exploring, whether it’s philosophy, history, psychology, literature, or anything meaningful to you. Second part: We regroup and each person shares key takeaways, insights, or questions sparked by their reading. This sparks a structured yet free-flowing conversation around ideas, perspectives, and personal reflections. Why join? Add structure to your reading habit. Discover new books, authors, and ideas through others’ choices. Build real connections by sharing and listening deeply. Socialize around something meaningful instead of small talk.

About the Jones Point Lighthouse The Jones Point Lighthouse is one of the last riverine lighthouses in the country and the only one still standing in the Chesapeake Bay area. Today it is the focal point of Jones Point Park and a clue to the area's history as a busy commercial center and naval base. https://www.nps.gov/gwmp/learn/historyculture/jonespointlighthouse.htm **About the Woodrow Wilson Bridge** The Woodrow Wilson Memorial Bridge is a bascule bridge that spans the Potomac River between the independent city of Alexandria, Virginia, and Oxon Hill in Prince George's County, Maryland, United States. The bridge is named for the 28th President of the United States, Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924), a native of Staunton, Virginia. While he was President, Wilson reportedly spent an average of two hours a day riding in his automobile to relax or to "loosen his mind from the problems before him." President Wilson was an advocate of automobile and highway improvements in the United States. In 1916, he said, "My interest in good roads is...to bind communities together and open their intercourse so that it will flow with absolute freedom and facility". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woodrow_Wilson_Bridge **About George Washington's Distillery** In 1799, George Washington's distillery produced nearly 11,000 gallons, making it one of the largest whiskey distilleries in America. Today, a faithfully reconstructed working distillery produces small-batch spirits on-site and is open to visitors from April - October. https://www.mountvernon.org/the-estate-gardens/distillery-gristmill/ **About Mount Vernon** The Mansion at George Washington's Mount Vernon is one of the most iconic 18th-century homes in America. In 1734, when George Washington was only two years old, his father had built the core of what became Washington's Mansion. The Mansion is ten times the size of the average home in colonial Virginia. https://www.mountvernon.org/the-estate-gardens/the-mansion/ten-facts-about-the-mansion/ The group stops a few times for slower riders to catch up. Our bikes will always be in our sight. No additional locks are required to keep your bike safe on this trip. For the E-bike Lovers group to be successful, we need to grow our membership carefully. Please feel free to invite other E-bike lovers, spread the word, and let's have fun. As usual, non-assisted bikers are most welcome.
