    Sue and I are relocating to Alexandria, VA from Melbourne Australia in April and hope to find a group road ride or two.  We ride 3-4 times a week in Melbourne now both on Beach Road during the week with BayRiders and just ourselves around Arthurs Seat/Red Hill on the weekends.   Any advice or introductions for our new home would be greatly appreciated

    Hello,

     

     Are you guys looking to race, fast group ride or just chill ride?? There is a ton of riding here I just need to know what you are in to. You can allways email offline at mikeesmonde@yahoo.com. I have several rides mapped out in my profile of area rides and I am the Vice-president of my racing club here in D.C. so any help you need let me know.

    this is a one-time thing, but it ends in Alexandria and looks like a lot of fun (plus a great introduction to the trails):

    also, I have found the online bike maps of DC and Arlington to be very helpful.  The Mount Vernon trail is great (well depending on what you're looking for- its scenic and accessible, but pretty flat).
