  • One of my newer routes doing a couple trails in the NoVA area, mainly west Fairfax going to Herndon, down to Vienna, and back over.
    Originally Recorded in 2k, but compression makes it look a bit worse. Sorry about the quality!

    This route is a bit modified from the video to add a bit of distance but also with a bike lane for safety. (You can exit onto Cedar Lane similarly to the video but I think Gallows is a bit safer)

      Awesome to hear! I know riding on the 66 trail is not very fun due to the winds and car pollutants, but it makes it better than a back and forth route.

    Nice ride. I need to get back on my bike. I appreciated it as I used to live off of fairfax county parkway and I knew of the connection to the WO&D but despite having spent time in Vienna and riding thru there years ago I was not aware of the new trail at 6:24 in your video. Thanks for the great ride and the information.

      Hopefully you get back on the bike soon! Another approach for a bit of extra miles is if you go down to the w&od up until gallows road, make a right, there is a small bike lane on the road where you can ride up past the elementary school and the start of the 66 trail is there. It wasnt opened when I filmed this, but it's safer than technically riding on cedar lane in the video.

      @@AliuBikes Ok I think I know where you are talking. That sounds like Gallows down to just before Dunn Loring Metro. It has been years but I will have to check it out the next time I am in that neck of the woods.

    I just moved to this area recently. About a few miles away from that Safeway. I kind of recognize some of
    That region. Could you list from the starting point what I would have to enter in my gps to go the same exact route and maybe some monument points I have to watch out for once it transitions to the next trail?I couldn’t really tell because the video was sped up

      Hi! I included a ridewithgps link here. Let me know if this is helpful. If not I can break it down for you. ridewithgps.com/routes/48383422
      It is a bit different from the video as they finished the trail up to gallows road. This is a bit safer than what I did in the video up to Cedar Lane in Vienna as they have a bike lane on gallows.
