Sunday morning ride
One of the many things I love about living in DC is the abundance of easy recreation within minutes. This morning, a 15 minute drive took me to Wakefield Regional Park. Five minutes outside of the parking lot, I was in the middle of the woods all by myself, on a mountain bike trail system expertly maintained by the good folks at MORE. Some days, there is no better escape than putting myself in a position where the sole thoughts in my head involve getting through the space in front of me . . .
In going to get a link for this post, I came across the announcement of volunteer trail work dates in March. If you ever ride Wakefield, please try to make one or two of these days. Keeping a place like Wakefield in rideable shape takes an enormous amount of work, and I’d bet that less than 1% of riders pitch in to keep it going. Trail maintenance is a 100% volunteer powered effort - please add your bit to it, if you use it. Thanks.
