Report: A perfect day for a bike ride! This route started at Allen Pond and traveled along backroads of Eastern Prince George's County into Anne Arundel County. Although some of the roads tend to be busy during the week there's usually light traffic on Sundays. That was the case today. The group worked together to keep at the advertised A/B pace (~14-16ams) being mindful of when we needed to adjust for climbs and descents. The rest stop was at the 11 mile mark (7-Eleven) we stopped for snacks and a restroom break. There were 17 miles left, composed of rollers, climbs that got your attention, flats where we could push the pace, and the rough bumpy speckled shade of Queen Anne Bridge Rd. We finished within the advertised pace! This was a very nice Sunday morning ride with a good group of riders. Thanks to all who joined me.
