Virginia Bike Ride

We drove out to Leesburg, VA - west of here about 40 miles, then rode 10 miles to Purcellville along the WOD (Washington and Old Dominion) rail trail.  Slightly uphill on the way, slightly downhill on the way back.

It was a very nice day - cooler than I expected.  The trail is shaded by trees in most spots, and we had some clouds too.  The last few miles to Purcellville, we encountered large numbers of cyclists - a Multiple Sclerosis fund-raising ride.

We chilled out for 20 minutes or so at the end of the trail - got our picture taken - then headed back.  We returned home via Maryland back roads - stopped at a farmers' stand and got some fresh cherries to munch on the drive!

Or NOAA has found a small, portable billboard.

Why didn't you just ride the whole 100?
