Route: Allen Pond To Harwood, starting from Allen Pond park and traveling along backroads of Prince George's and Anne Arundel Counties
Weather: Overcast for most of the ride, with a starting temperature of 49°, warming to ~60°. There was a brief period where we felt a few raindrops.
Mechanicals/Mishaps: None
AMS: Ride leader ended with 15.1
Report: The goal was to ride this route at an A/B pace with the ending ams between 14 to 16 mph. We met that goal by sharing the work of leading the ride between the 5 of us. It was a good ride even though some of the roads were riddled with uneven pavement and potholes (Mill Branch and Queen Anne Bridge roads). Much of the route was along 2 lane back roads with woods on both sides and occasionally, houses on large lots, and not much vehicle traffic. The sun came out briefly and at one point, we felt occasional raindrops but that quickly ended. Thanks to all who joined me for this ride.
