So Jen did a lot of research and picked a lovely apartment up here - walking distance to a Whole Foods, Trader Joes, Library, Park, Dry Cleaner, Frozen Yogurt place, etc. It's also sort of close to this bike trail called the Washington and Old Dominion Trail, which is a "rails to trails" type of bike path. I've figured out, from google maps, how to ride over to it, and I've ridden a little ways along it, just over to the closest town and back.
Today I kept going, all the way to the start in Arlington. Google maps says that is 9.7 miles, and should take 53 minutes, one way. So that's 19.4 miles total. I'm pretty sure that is the farthest I've ever ridden. Woohoo!
I'll have to work up to going the other way, that's more of an all day ride.
