Comments: Frederick Loop from Mount Airy. Out on Old Annapolis and Liberty. Back on Old National Pike.

Co-Motion needed some work, so I loaded it and the Riv on the car and drove to Mt. Airy. While Larry worked on the Co-Motion, I rode the Riv to Frederick and back.

I had lunch and a latte at Gravel and Grind. This coffee-bike shop is much more coffee than bikes. Only a few bikes and practically no paraphernalia. Coffee was good, though, as was the mozzarella and sun-dried tomato toast. Riv is a dream to ride.
