| After renting bikes in DC, we metro/biked back to Crofton. MLK Hwy was quite sketchy (in terms of traffic and no bike lane) at the on- and off-ramps with 95 and 50. The Washington-Annapolis bike trail was not well-signed at intersections between miles 0.5-2.5 mi, although it was a wonderfully beautiful ride. Rt 450 between Racetrack Rd and Rt. 3 had NO bike lane for 1/8th mile - this portion was sketchy too. Overall, nice ride, though. |

15.2km |
Commute, Steep, Intermediate, High traffic, Rough, Urban |
| This is my commute to work. I try to stay on small streets until I am awake in the morning to handle bigger thoroughfares, which explains the choice of K street instead of Mass Ave, for instance. Easy/Low intermediate through DC until you reach the Anacostia River, at which point the commute is a Car Sewer. Stay on O street SE to avoid major traffic hassles, but be prepared for three consecutive steep hills. Good Morning Ride, and the afternoon is exciting, if not a little more crowded. |
