W&OD trail (trail head in Shirlington) to
Custis Trail (near bluemont junction) to

And back to the Gravely Point area.  Possible excursion into DC at Memorial

An added benefit of going through Crystal City is the chance to see that 
big red vending machine that sells tubes, patch kits and tire levers.  
Time was, you simply couldn't find a less bike-friendly place than 
Crystal City; and now, they have a vending machine that sells bicycle 
repair parts right on the street.  It's mind boggling.

I was just on the Four Mile Run trail this morning (around 9:15 or so) and

Looked like a great ride.  The WW1 memorial is nice.  Remember discovering it when I first visited there. Glad to see the scaffolding coming down on the Washington Monument.  But was pleasantly surprised to see they lit it up when we were there in October.
Totally jealous as it is now back below zero in the Twin Cities. At noon.

If you're local to Washington DC and want another chance at a ride to 
downtown DC, you might consider this Oxon Hill bike club New Years Day ride



WED Jan 1 *NEW YEAR'S DAY TOUR OF MONUMENTS PLUS* Class ALL 24 mi. 10:30 
AM from Oxon Hill Park and Ride Lot.


Celebrate 2014 with a bike ride! Join the friendliest bike people around 
as we visit National Harbor Christmas Tree, then take the Mt Vernon 
Trail to downtown DC. We'll do a short tour of some DC highlights. We'll 
ride a loop around Hains Point -- the traditional New Year's gathering 
place for bikers in the DC metro area. The 24 miles is the round trip 
distance from the park & ride to the Lincoln Memorial and back. Tour of 
monuments and circle of Hains Point adds about 6 miles to that total. 
Bring a snack or two. We can stop for hot drinks in DC and/or a late 
lunch in Old Town.


Joan will ride to the ride start from her home in Arlington (through 
Shirlington and Del Ray into Old Town and then across the WWB) so if 
anyone wants to join her along the way for this extra mileage, send an e 
mail. Casual picture-taking ride. Oh, and leaders will attempt to avoid 
being arrested (again) at the MLK site. You can also park at Jones Point 
Park in Old Town and meet us there - please let us know ahead of time.


_Dir_: West on Oxon Hill Road from Md 210 (Indian Head Highway) at the 
Beltway. Go under 295/210 overpass and take second left into Park and 
Ride Lot across from National Avenue. Alternate ride start at Jones 
Point Park in Alexandria.  Or, the route follows the Mount Vernon Trail 
through Alexandria and north to DC, so you could hang out on the trail 
just about anywhere and join the group as it goes by; you could also 
catch the group at the Bikeshare station at the Jefferson memorial.
