This wonderful 30.7-mile route is available at: It starts at Aldie Park, avoids highway 50, and leads through spectacular landscapes on rustic, mainly asphalt roads. We have a few miles of compact gravel road. **REMEMBER:** This is a self-guided event. This event empowers each participant to take the lead, as there are no designated bike leaders within E-bike Lovers. We all embrace the role of leaders in this self-guided experience. Please only RSVP if you are coming, so we know how many E-bike Lovers will participate. We enjoy a nearly 100% RSVP success rate. Thank you so much for your help! Afterward, we optionally meet at Chrysalis Vineyards near Aldie Park. We met the vineyard management when we planned this route, and we could picnic with our food and use their facilities. They have excellent pizzas, wines, etc in the backdrop of beautiful hills. Parking for this Meetup is at the small Aldie dam off Route 50. There are no toilets at Aldie Dam. We will bike through the center of Middleburg, where we may find restrooms. The vineyard where we meet after the ride has excellent facilities.
