Bike ride in Beltsville Farms, Patuxent Wildlife Refuge

Community bike ride from Proteus bike shop in north College Park to Patuxent Wildlife Refuge visitors center.  About 22 mile loop; pace will be moderate (although we may split into groups of different speeds); no one will be dropped.  We'll take a route that isn't too hilly -- at least the hills are mostly gradual.  Snacks and light refreshments at the shop before and after.

Proteus is easy to access by bike from the Paint Branch Trail/University of MD.  Take turn right on the wood bridge just past the golf course, cross Route 1 at Hollywood Road, and the shop is just a couple blocks south.  If you'd like to ride to the shop from Greenbelt for the start of the ride, we'll be leaving from the New Deal Cafe at 12:30pm.  Call 301-441-2928 for more info.  -Jeff
