A beautiful 136k gravel-centric populaire through the outskirts of northern Virginia. The start of the ride is Metro accessible, using the end of the Silver Line.

Jack's Preride Report: Mountain Church - for me the best part is getting to the foot of, then turning away from, the big nasty climb to Gathland. There’s lots of rolly terrain on this ride - great practice if you have dreams of riding Paris-Brest-Paris 2027 (where you’re going either up or down most time). […]

Here is a link to the RUSA page with the long version of the rules: https://rusa.org/pages/teamrando – […]
RWGPS formatted cue sheet. This flat Eastern Shore route follows much of the Underground Railroad driving tour, and takes in a large portion of the Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge, where the Harriet Tubman Underground Railroad National Historical Park is located.
