Note the time change due to heat! We leave promptly at 8:30 AM!!!! Come 15 minutes early to get ready to ride! 

Ramble? What is? A leisurely tour with combination of roads and trails exploring new places discovered during the pandemic and our old RBC routes. 


Get your gravel on! We're meeting at Point of Rocks to ride the easy gravel surface of the C&O Canal to Harpers Ferry and return. It's 14 miles each way and there's an excellent creamery for lunch and/or ice cream upon our return. Plan to take a few minutes in Harpers Ferry for photos - or if you're in a hurry you're welcome to head back at your own speed. There's no map for this one as there are no wrong turns possible! It's going to be hot, so bring plenty of water and be ready to start early!

The average speed of this ride is no more than 12 mph: leisurely. It is a good ride for retired, daytime free, new to cycling, or happy people. Could be considered a base miles ride.

Rides are not held when the forecast for rain is greater than 50%. Ride cancellations will be posted on Social Media. 

We are paper-free, which means you can download the route from RidewithGPS and print it before you come, but we will not have paper cue sheets to distribute at the ride.

All riders must sign (or have already signed for 2021) a liability waiver. You can do that HERE. The first ride with us is free. We welcome you to join us on subsequent rides as a member. Membership is $25 per year and you can take care of that HERE.
