# Seventh District Loop

Cycle through early Maryland history.  This ride takes you to the Potomac River site of Maryland’s founding and along beautiful, lightly traveled country roads.

17.8 miles, 311 feet of climbing.  Relatively easy.  Other than the start and finish, this course is very flat.

Park at:  [7th District Community Park](http://www.co.saint-marys.md.us/recreate/Seventhdistrictpark.asp)
23035 Colton Point Road Bushwood, MD 20618

Bathrooms:  Real bathrooms at 7th District park, port-a-potty at the St Clement's Island Museum parking lot.

## Detailed Route

From the park, turn right onto MD-242/Colton’s Point Rd, then right onto Maddox Rd.  After a bit over ½ mile, turn left onto Bushwood Rd.  Pass by the picturesque @poi[Post Office](20025) and follow Bushwood Wharf until you see water.  This is @poi[Bushwood Wharf](18310) on the Potomac River, previously Port Wicomico, which was an important port in the early history of St Mary’s County.  Returning from the water, turn right onto MD-239/Bushwood Wharf Rd, and then right onto MD-242/ Colton Point Rd.  Follow this very flat stretch for over 4 miles until you see water.  Enjoy the view- that is St Clement’s Island, where Maryland was founded in 1634.  Turn left onto Point Breeze Rd- the @poi[St Clement’s Island Museum](18311) is on your left.  On summer weekends, there is a once-a-day water taxi to the island: call the museum at 301-769-2222 for details.  Follow the road around to the left onto Bayview Rd, then turn right onto MD-242/Colton Point Rd.  In 3 miles, turn right onto MD-470/Oakley Rd and follow it for its full length, passing by @poi[All Saints Episcopal Church](20027).  At the T intersection, turn left onto MD-242/Colton Point Rd and return to the 7th District Park.
