CANCELED!! Looks like it will be raining at the start time, and these storms are tending to be heavy. We will reschedule for another day.
It's still summer, so let's ride to the beach! The weather forecast is a bit iffy, so we'll have two routes in southern Anne Arundel County to choose from. Both will visit Chesapeake Beach and North Beach, with at least two rest stops. The longer route also goes up to Harwood with a third stop there. View and download the 51-miler at https://ridewithgps.com/routes/28472449?beta=false. The 45-miler is at https://ridewithgps.com/routes/28480967?beta=false. I will plan to ride the longer route and will decide if the short cut is needed based on weather conditions during the ride. I will have cue sheets for both.This is a joint ride with the Oxon Hill Club.
Please check the schedule early Saturday in case precipitation forces us to cancel.
The ride start is at the park and ride in Waysons Corner. The address is 5442 Southern Maryland Blvd, Lothian MD, and it's just off Route 4 at the exit for MD- 408. It's a bit farther south than other rides starts in Anne Arundel, but it offers flexibility in terms of short cuts in case they're needed. There is no restroom at the park and ride but nearby stores include a Shell/Dash-In, Subway and Dunkin Donuts.
