++++++++++++++++++++ The Ride: Detail ++++++++++++++++++++ Welcome to The Koffee Klatch! These rides are normally based off the Arlington Loop, where we visit different area coffee shops or bakeries for a cup and/or treat if desired but you don't have to drink or even like coffee to participate.

This week we will head to Vienna.

The ride is a 18.5 mile flatish medium level ridden at a social pace (11-13 mph). We will get on the W&OD from the Bluemont SOUTH Parking Area out to the the Van Buren Connector to the I-66 Parallel Trail and out to Yeonas Dr where we take neighborhood streets to Weird Brothers at the corner of Lawyers and Maple in Vienna (mile 10.2). After coffee we take the W&OD back to Bluemont Park +++++++++++++++++++++ The Meeting Spot: +++++++++++++++++++++ South Bluemont Parking 329 N Manchester St Arlington, VA 22203 GPS: [38°52'07.6"N 77°07'55.7"W](https://www.google.com/maps/place/38%C2%B052'07.6%22N+77%C2%B007'55.7%22W/@38.868786,-77.132133,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m4!3m3!8m2!3d38.868786!4d-77.132133!5m1!1e3?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI2MDMwOS4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D)

+++++++++++++++++++++ Ride Level Chart +++++++++++++++++++++

NoVA CBG tries to accommodate all levels of cyclists by offering different types/levels of rides. We just ask that you come to the ride that suits your current riding ability the best.

• Introductory Level: If you haven't ridden a bike in a number of years (or are uncertain of your abilities on a bicycle). • Beginner Level: You can ride for 10+ miles at a pace of 10+ to 12+ mph with potentially minor hills involved. • Medium Level: You can ride for 20+ miles at a pace of 13+ to 15+ mph with potentially moderate hills involved. • Advanced Level: You can ride for 20++ miles at a pace of 15+ mph with potentially major hills involved.

Both Medium and Advanced Levels might require handling various challenges such as reading cue sheets, using a Garmin or navigation app, night riding, out of town travel, or any other odd cycling situations.
