The Places I ride, the people I meet, the things I enjoy…
Looking back on 2023, forward to 2024
Personally, 2023 was a good year. Like any other, it had its ups and downs, but overall, most of the habits and patterns I developed are worth repeating.
MTBDC at Wunder Garten
Several people joined me as I gave a presentation on Mountain Biking in and around the DC Region at REI’s DC Wunder Garten at the NoMa.
Winter is Coming…
Cold weather doesn't mean you have to stop riding, it just means you have to dress a little smarter to combat the elements so that your riding experience is just as enjoyable as it is durning the warm months.
Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays!
I'm gearing up for 2013 and hoping that the new book hits the shelves in the spring so that it is ready for you when you are ready to hit the trails. I've been quiet the past few weeks since submitting the manuscript, but that does not mean I have not been busy.
Go For a Ride using the Best DC Cycling Guides!
All around Washington, DC, are some great roads, trails, and bike paths that are fun to explore. My Books: Best Easy Bike Rides Washington, DC, Mountain Biking the Washington DC/Baltimore Area and Mountain Biking Virginia describe nearly 100 great regional cycling destinations.
Each route includes complete directions, a map, a text description of the area you’ll be riding, the GPS coordinates of the Start/finish point, and color photos of at least one of the ride’s features. Also included is information on local restaurants, lodging, maps, bicycle shops, and other facilities for cyclists, as well as community resources.
The Ride With GPS (RWGPS) map below lists a collection of routes included in Best Bike Rides Washington DC, Best Easy Bike Rides, Washington DC, Mountain Biking Virginia and Mountain Biking the Washington DC/Baltimore Area. The map also includes routes and rides not documented in one of my books. Please Join my RWGPS Club account to gain access to member only routes, events, challenges and other member only benefits.
All documented rides in my books include detailed directions to the starting point of the ride, accurate maps, historic write-ups on the area/ride, regional information including points of contact, where to eat, stay, and other useful data to make the best out of your outing.
Honorable mentions include directions to the starting point and references to help you craft your own routes.
