Work up an appetite before your big meal! Do you want to get out and enjoy the crisp fresh air
on a group ride before the big Thanksgiving feast, have a chance to get
out of the house with the kids and let them burn off some energy, or
just get out on your bike to enjoy some of our local trails on a
beautiful Fall holiday? Join us for a Thanksgiving Day morning ride,

We
start off at Westover Park Playground, one of Arlington's many great
neighborhood playgrounds. We'll roll down the Custis Trail under I-66
and over to the Washington and Old Dominion Trail south past Wilson Blvd
underpass, heading onto the Four Mile Run Trail shortly after passing
the caboose. We'll ride past the fields at Bluemont park and ride into
the woods, where there is the Bluemont Park Playground. Ride is 1.2
miles one way. For those interested, we'll let the kids play at the
Bluemont Playground for a while and then we can ride back to Westover
Park together. All are welcome - with and without kids.
In
the spirit of giving thanks, we will also collect canned and boxed food
for donation to AFAC. Donations are optional and voluntary.
