Description
Meet at Jamestown High School (3761 John Tyler Highway, Williamsburg, VA 23185) for the fall version of this popular ride. We'll ride a few miles on the Virginia Capital Trail to the Jamestown Ferry and cross the James River. After riding on rural Surry and Isle of Wight County roads, the group will have lunch at the Smithfield Station on the Pagan River. After lunch there will be an optional stop at the ice cream parlor on Main Street in Smithfield. The return route will pass by Bacon's Castle and Chippokes State Park to Scotland Wharf on the way to the ferry. The total riding distance is 54 miles on mostly flat terrain.
This is a joint ride for the Richmond Area Bicycling Association and WAB. Jack will lead the C pace group and Sara Page of RABA will lead the B pace group. Note that this ride uses the route on the link below and not the one in the WAB cue sheet library. Paper copies of the cue sheet will also be available at the start of the ride.
