Performance Velo (PV) – D’ville Park and Ride Commuter Lot (07/14/2026)

Tue, 14 Jul 2026 13:00:00 GMT

Welcome to ABC's Performance Velo Ride!

The goal of this weekly ride is to focus on training and will include pace-lines, sprints, climbs, descents, and minimal stops. This ride is for cyclists looking for a challenging, strenuous ride. It is geared towards those looking to increase their speed and endurance in a team-like setting or may be training for races, Gran Fondos, or other such events.

The average pace: B+ 18-20 mph range, and generally competitive over somewhat demanding terrain. This is a DROP ride. We may regroup at stop signs or lights, but this is not guaranteed. You must be prepared in the event you end up solo and have the route downloaded and the supplies necessary to address mechanical problems on your own. There are no designated rest stops as the goal is to keep moving. The pace will vary slightly based on time of year and weather conditions.

This ride will take place weekly on Tuesday or Thursday mornings. Start time is 9am during spring/summer and 10am during late fall/winter. We ride year-round. The route will vary week-to-week and will be between 30-38 miles. In the event of bad weather please be sure to check the app or website the morning of the ride in case of cancellation.

Week to week starting locations:

Davidsonville Park and Ride Commuter Lot
Homestead Gardens
Smithsonian Environmental Research Center (SERC)
Corridor Park
Others...

This week’s route link: DZ 32 revised v2 34.9 miles · +1,661 ft / -1,644 ft

Ride Leader: TBD contact Jenn Meyers ameyers00@gmail.com with questions

If you have any suggestions for routes or are interested in leading either this ride or a similar style ride at a slower pace, please contact Jenn. We would LOVE to have you and welcome more ride leaders!

Non-members may ride one time after signing a release.

Tuesday Eve South County 26 miles · +1,044 ft - FROM D'VILLE PARK (07/14/2026)

Tue, 14 Jul 2026 21:30:00 GMT

2026 South Anne Arundel County Evening

Join us for the evening south county ride on Tuesdays in the spring, summer, and fall.

Note this tends to be a faster ride - 18-19 mph average speeds are normal. We sometimes have a slower group, but that is not guaranteed. Please contact RJ if you're wondering about a slower group for a specific week.

Starting point: START AT Davidsonville Park on Patuxent River Road. We meet across from the baseball field in the park: Go straight in and park in the lot across from the pavilion. There are a few shaded spots if you turn right just after the ball fields, but we've been warned it's a foul ball landing zone.

Departure time: 5:30 PM

Route: 26 Miles – Patuxent River Rd → Harwood Rd → Right on Rt 2 → Right on Bayard → Right on South Polling House → Left on Polling House → Right on Bayard → Right on Sands → Left on Patuxent River Rd, back to park.

There are options for shorter routes or slower rides - please let RJ know if you're interested in one of these.

We'll regroup at the 7-11 gas station at the intersection of Harwood Road and Route 2.

Ride leaders:

Faster ride, 17-19 mph: RJ Marquette. Register to let the ride leader know you plan to attend and receive weather updates & cancellations.

Slower pace/shorter ride: We are still looking for a ride leader for people who are looking for a slower or shorter ride. Please email rides@annapolisbicycleclub.org if you'd like to help!

Inclement weather: We'll do our best to make a go/no-go decision around 4:15 p.m., based on the rain and thunderstorm outlook during the riding hours. RJ uses this weather forecast along with radar from Windy. We generally do NOT cancel because of heat alone, but we will ease up on the pace, if necessary.

Route changes: To avoid confusion, we will only adjust the route due to serious issues, such as road closures, inclement weather, mechanical issues, and similar emergencies.
