Sep 2014 Sunny and Wet Maryland, Virginia, and Pennsylvania loop day ride.
It was a gorgeous sunny and mild day of riding that was interrupted by a few short showers which were enough to get us pretty wet. 
Ben Mendis had said, "I want to practice on more gravel roads." so off towards White's Ferry he, 
buffalo, and I went. White's Ferry, as the name implies, is a ferry that cross the Potomac River. There's a route there that includes several miles of gravel and dirt roads.
We cross the river and headed up to Lovettsville where we had lunch at an Italian restaurant and then went on to points North along Route 17, which is one of our favorites. I had seen a road on the map, Route 233 in Pennsylvania, near Mont Alto, which I had mistaken for an awesome road I had ridden some years ago. So through rain and light wind, we headed up there only to find that it was not the road I had thought it was. However, Coming down the other side of the mountain along Cold Spring Road (a different Cold Spring Road) we were greeted by an incredible rain bow and some wickedly little twisty bouncy roads through hilly wooded country.
