Northeast - Where are the MD people's

Just wondering i see a lot of other riders from other states on this forum.

I'm here over in Montlgomery County, sluggin along

Problem with the way these regoinal forums are split up is that the DC area is cut into two groups. Don't know whether to post in NE or SE or both, so most of the time it's neither.

Southern AA/Northern Calvert here. (North/Chesapeake Beach is the home base)

I got the bike for crosstraining.
I am out pretty much every weekend, either on inlines or the bike.
I certainly see enough other riders on the road, but I haven't had a good chance to meet any.

Queen Annes county. Water, trees and more water:eek: .

I run, bike ride and try to roller skate.

P.G. County checking in... I ride mostly on rail trails (WB&A, B&A and W&OD) while training for the Seagull Century.

also checking in from PG

Carroll County here.

Hello from north-central Baltimore County!

Carroll County here. But I ride all over.

-D

But no-one one the Eastern Shore:( .

North Harford/Baltimore County Here I can be found at Loch Raven, Lake Redman, and a little secret local spot :)

Eastern B'more in Balto-county.

Silver Spring in Montgomery county here. This is the first time I've ever looked in these regional forums. Maybe I'll have to start paying attention.

Nice to know he have a nice population of md bike riders, but none in Queen Annes County:( .

So even though I'm on the nicer side of the river ;) I'll jump in and ask if anyone is riding the Indian Head Century on Sunday? I'm doing the metric with a few friends.

The Baltimore Bike Club is holding their Civil War Century on Saturday morning at 7am starting at Thurmont--thinking about doing that one. It has about 7,400 feet of climbing across 105 miles.

PG County here--if you've ridden in the Beltsville Agriultural Research Center on a weeknight you've probably seen me training.

Though 'Spokes' is not a forum, there is a way to comment textually or via a poll on the articles or stories shown on the site or to contribute a story. Barry always seems to have his finger on the pulse of B'more cycling advocacy.

I've ridden through/around the BARC a few times, although mostly on the weekends. Any routes you recommend?

But no-one one the Eastern Shore:( .

Kent Island here. :)

Germantown, Montgomery County.

Charles Village, Baltimore City

Since this is a Maryland Thread here is an upcoming event that is a fun for all (http://www.onelesscar.org/tdp06/)

Kent Island here. :)

Very nice, I'm in Grasonville. You ride the trail often?.

Tour du Port, I think ill do that anyone else going along?

I do sometimes with my wife but really not crazy about the pedestrian traffic etc...

My usual route is a 28 mile run up and down route 8. Where do you ride in Grasonville?

I will probably ride the Tour du Port; I've been wanting to do it for a few years now, and I just never seem to make it.

I plan on registering today, I think ill try the 15-mile route, maybe the 22 not sure yet.

The Tour Du Port is fun. Usually try to leave about 1/2 hour after official start time to reduce "bike" traffic. We take our son on a trail-a-bike. May I also suugest the women on here consider She Got Bike on October 1. Nice experience last year despite the rain!

TdP's a good ride. I've been to the last 5. Can't break my streak now. ;)

Last year's TdP I rode the loop twice around. Turns the short course into a decent size ride. If anyone else want to try a double TdP, I'll be at the start at 7am. :p

I will be doing the TDP this year and hopefully I can persuade my GF to come this year too.

Some times i ride on the trail in Kent Island, i also like riding that trail past k-mart in the Roamakoke area. Lately i have been riding on my trainer resting up for a big month in October.

I live in Severn, Maryland - Central Anne Arundel county. I just moved here from rockville. I actually grew up here so know the roads pretty well. I'd like to learn more about the TourDuPort. Any links?
Also - for the Kent Island crowd. I lived there for a while, around the ten mile point on RT. 8 - Keen Farm Lane. That was 15 or 16 years ago. There are a bunch on new homes on the old farm now.
I hope to hook up with some of the Marylanders here someday.
I'm going out on the B&A Trail tomorow for a flat long ride.

Take Care,

That's right, MoCo represent. Or something. I'm also Silver Spring if that wasn't already apparent.

Angelo,

I enjoyed your Blog and routes that you have cycled. Hopefully one day I will do the same. today I went out and rode an hour on some rolling hills and put in about 14 miles. I used to be able to ride a century and even did a MS150 ride five years ago. I hope to increase my mileage to do the kind of riding you are now.
Thank for the motivation

Angelo,

I’ve seen your routes on Bikely and it looks like we travel in some of the same places. Hopefully we will see each other on the road sometime.

Central Anne Arundel county here.

Does anyone in the Harford/Baltimore County area have a used road bike for sale? I want something to cross-train on, My full sus mtb gets a little old trying to ride up and down the hills around here. I havent had much luck in the Classifieds Thanks everyone!

You may want to consider subscribing to the Yahoo group, BBC Talk, run by the Baltimore Bike Club. Sometimes club members sell bikes through that medium.

BBC Talk can be found here:

Also, if you are interested, the BBC has their own web site here:

Hi,

I'm sure we'll cross paths eventually. I ride an ANT bicycle (http://bikeforums.net/showthread.php?p=2763108&#post2763108). Will also try to make it to tour du port!

-AT.

Well I’m hard to miss with my “truck bike” as some call it (Xtracycle) with Aero Bars. I really could not make up what kind of bike I wanted or what kind of riding I like to do so I ended up with this Frankenbike of sorts so I can do it all and have lots of excuses to go out and ride (i.e. similar to excuses why people drive a car sometimes.)

I am in Olney, in Montgomery County. Just getting back into riding outside. I do spinning several times a week and am in the process of becoming certified to teach.

Welcome Biscuit, the MD people see nice for the most part, Do you stick to the road or trails? I am in Harford County.
