START: Utica Park, Frederick,MD -- Ride Terrain: Very Hilly, Rest Stops: Lunch,
I've decided to mark the 10th anniversary of my x-country bike trip by riding to the now infamous Subway. On 4/21/2015 I departed San Diego airport & arrived @ this Subway on 5/25/ Memorial day. Needless to say, today's route is much shorter than the 2800 mile arduous adventure across Merica of a decade ago..... pics of the trip https://www.flickr.com/photos/132083892@N04
Since this is Memorial day weekend, it should be noted that the route passes through battlefields & Antietam National Cemetery
*Route crosses Rt 15 at grade.* This can be avoided & mileage can be reduced to 75 miles by starting (& ending) @ Thurmont Comminity Park. You would climb up 77, turn left onto Stottlemyer and meet up with me along there.
I usually take a break @ either the creamery or the monument. I usually eat lunch @ Subway in Boonesboro. There's also another opportunity for a break @ the store prior to descending down into Thurmont.

This is the PrettyBoy Plunge not-so-Lite from Meadowood.
This is a beautiful, not short, hilly ride through the Prettyboy watershed. RWGPS says there are 10 major hills and some small ones. None are terribly steep. We'll ride approx 34 miles to the High's on Rayville Rd for our rest stop. Last year, there was a Porta Potty on the parking lot. It's only 11 miles and one big climb to Veloccino. Then we roll over Cuba to the last climb up JerryJay followed by the screaming descent of Mays Chapel!
I'm leading this ride because I have gone over the Dam and adjacant to yet not around PrettyBoy in several weeks. Also, the high temp for Tuesday is forecast to be Ok! Don't know yet about the winds. Regrouping depends on who shows up.

START: Lot F Ellicott Mills Dr. Historic E.C. -- Ride Terrain: Rolling, Regrouping: Some, Rest Stops: Lunch,
Somewhat untested route I got from Phil F. I changed the start from Catonsville to E.C. I've done the return from D.C. twice. Unlike M2M there's no designated stops, as yet. I've asked for suggestions to no avail. I'm mostly doing this as a test ride. However, this might be the ONLY time I post it. Please note & take into consideration, the category 14-15 mph when considering whether or not to join me. Email me if you have any questions. I'll update the description if I have any additional info to add. Given my past experience w/GPS problems, I'll most likely print a few cue sheets as a back up. Lastly, We have done a similar ride in the past where we took the MARC train back to Halethorpe. However, I'm not sure if I'd recommend doing that.
