    Hmmm...Rosaryville is right by the crib.  Might just do that instead since I gotta be home early in the afternoon.  I hear Rosaryville is dope though.

    I wouldn't mind trying the colvin run trail.  It sounded pretty good to me.  I know there is an opening to one of the trails right near the Reston Ice rink.

    Yeah they have a single-track moderate to difficult trail that's 7.5 miles.

    Ok, here's the OFFICIAL RIDE INFO:

     

    Day: Tomorrow, Saturday August 9th


    Meet Time:  0900 at the BOJANGLES off of rt 301
              7571 SE Crain Highway
              Upper Marlboro, MD 20772\

         *If you're usually late (like me), the meet time is 0830


    Ride Place: Rosaryville State Park
              8714 Rosaryville Road
              Upper Marlboro MD 20772

     

    I've never been here, nor have I gone mountain bike riding in a LONG time....  but I've heard it's a good moderate-difficult trail. 
    We will take it slow, and just enjoy the ride.  Looking to be done before 1400 (2pm).

    A Few Friendly Reminders:

    * Dress accordingly-- Weather looks AMAZING for tomorrow. 
                  70 degrees at 9am -- 78 degrees at 2pm with partly cloudy skies
    * Bring plenty of water-- Hydration is good
    * Bring a helmet-- I'm not sure if it's required or not... but just bring one in case
    * Bring a couple bucks cash for park entrance fee-- $3/vehicle; $4/vehicle out-of-state residents

     

     

    If anyone needs my cell phone number, PM me.

    Rosaryville is an awesome trail.  YesYes

    You won't get bored at all.  If you Sheaffer Farm then you'll love this one. 

    I'll put a report with pictures soon.
