4th Annual Oink At The Moon – A Social Ride
Come and join the VeloPigs Beer and Bicycle Social Club’s 4th annual Oink At The Moon! This ride is a non-competitive NIGHT GRAVEL ride that takes place on the rural farm roads of western Loudoun County. The start and finish will be at the Wheatland Spring Farm and Brewery.
The ride will take place on open roads, both gravel and paved. We will begin approximately one hour before sunset and will finish well after dark. Riders are expected to follow all rules of the road and act as responsible stewards for the sport of cycling.
The metric century (63 mile) route will have two pace groups: THE BUSINESS (average speed 16+ mph) and Business Casual (average speed 14-15 mph). The 40-mile route will also have two pace groups: Business Casual (average speed 14-15 mph) and Party Pace (average speed 12-14 mph). Please register for the route and pace that will best suit your riding abilities.
Riders are asked to stage in the gravel parking lot 5-10 minutes before the ride begins. Groups will roll out at 5-minute intervals to avoid congesting the small roads with too many riders.
