Bike Washington
Comments: Gregg, Zion, Muncaster, Washington Grove. Laid up a couple of days with health issues, so I stretched it a little this afternoon. Gregg Rd is just about the prettiest biking place around. Rather than looping out on Ga., I doubled back to Zion and down to Brookeville. Light was fading by 6 when I finished. Summer goes by so fast.

Comments: Davis Mill, Log House, Woodfield School, Hawkins Creamery, Rocky.

Davis Mill is now open all along Wildcat branch. The road has been closed the better part of a year while they shoried up a couple hundred feet of the bank.

Nice Indian Summer day.

Got held in a meeting yesterday afternoon, so I quit early today and doubled up.

I'm really enjoying the Riv.

Comments: Scotland, Airport. Since the plague started, I've usually gone biking after finishing the day's work. But DST is ending soon, and Nimesh is starting a daily 5:00 meeting. Today, I started out before 3:00 and worked a couple hours after getting back.

Price is difficult. Packed gravel. Some tricky downhills. Maybe next time, I'd walk them. It is out of the way, though and scenic.

Comments: Damascus Laytonsville loop. Up Wildcat to Watkins, Log House and Woodfield School. Then up through Greg's old neighborhood to Hawkins Creamery, and back home via Rocky and Goshen School.

Blustery, cold, and wintry. I looked forward to the uphills more than the downhills.
