Folks!
Meet in front of City Hall by 9:00 AM this Friday, for a ride to Droodle… that’s up thru Bolton Hill, Druid Hill Lake and Park, the Jones Falls Trail, then back Clipper Mill and Falls Roads. (That’ll trim the cookin’ off ya’s.)

how long / intense is the route?? speed? I’m in town visiting from Toronto.. brought my road bike.. thinking of coming out for this but a little hesitant as i have no idea what im getting into.
I believe the route is close to 10 miles, the pace can vary depending on who shows up, possibly some will be going ~15mph but generally the main group is closer to 12-13mph. Intensity is hard to describe, it’s moderate if you are used to transversing a hilly city otherwise short sections can be intense. I plan on being there (the guy with the long bike) and I would be happy to add a few more miles with you if you would like.
Baltimore Bicycling Club also has a couple of rides on Friday https://baltobikeclub.org/index.pl/schedulea
The long ride category are faster pace more intense rides and the short rides are a bit more laid back ~12mph – 15mph range.
I’ll note the long ride start is close to the last Light Rail stop in Hunt Valley but I assume the short ride would be more your cup of tea and that information follows sans ride leader contact info which can be found on the Baltimore Bike Club web site.
all pace short – 10:00 am – 32 mi
START: MTV – Mount View Middle School. Take I-70 West to Marriottsville Rd exit. Make a right at the end of the ramp. Go about a mile to Rt 99 (Old Frederick Rd). Make a left. About a mile or so down Rte 99, you will see Marriott’s Ridge High School and Mt View Middle school – we will start from Mt View Middle school.
