The full ride is about 60 miles. We start near St. Michaels then head down to Tilghman Island with a short rest stop at the end of the island, then head back through St. Michaels to take the ferry (the oldest privately owned ferry in the US) over to Oxford. There we’ll get lunch at the Oxford Market and sit at the picnic tables looking out at the Tred Avon River. Then it’s back around the loop through Easton and back to the start. We’ll have at least two pace groups. There are a couple of options for shorter distances (longer ones too).
Here are some details: Getting there is real easy – Rt. 50 to Rt. 322 to Rt. 33 to the boat dock. It takes me 45-50 minutes but I’m only 5 minutes from the Bay Bridge. Start will be at 9 am from the boat dock area in Newcomb, MD on Rt. 33, on the left just after crossing the bridge. This is located about 6 miles after turning on Rt. 33 and about 3 miles east of St. Michaels. Parking there can sometimes be tight so plan on parking two deep to make more spaces available. Or think about carpooling. Bring $5 for the ferry and $ for lunch (great sandwiches) in Oxford.
I’m announcing a rain date of one week later (June 15) as a way preclude bad weather for the scheduled date.
