Upper Rock Creek Loop Counter Clockwise

Met Steve R at the northern edge of the loop and rode it counter-clockwise since the climbing back to the start/stop area is easier in that direction.

Yet another lovely fall day, with bright blue sky, a small breeze and temp around 70. Another single-layer with short sleeves ride. In late October.

The loop is mostly a giant flow trail and is not particularly climb-y or difficult, but quite fun to ride at a good pace. Legs felt great. Contact points were quiet.
