Potomac Loop 55

Been awhile since we did this one . . . and while it was predicted to be "cloudy," the chance of rain was low. That proved true although we did pick up a few sprinkles here and there but nothing serious. But jeez did it looking threatening for almost the entire ride with the sun only getting out rarely. So that made for a cool ride, that and the wind which, as usual, sometimes helped and sometimes didn't!

  • FIT Course

    Best format for turn-by-turn directions on modern Garmin Edge Devices
