About this event
Maryland Monument Meander (Tour)
June 16, 2018
9 am
We will meet at the Maple Lawn Cars and Coffee (8180 Maple Lawn, Fulton MD 20759), which begins at 9am. You need to be there no later than 9:30am to sign the waiver and for the mandatory drivers meeting. Come with a full tank of gas and an empty bladder. There's a Highs less than a mile west of the start on MD-216 and there is a Starbucks at the Harris Teeter if you don't like Ethiopian coffee at Sidamo. The roads were LOVELY (only a few places with bottlenecks of any kind) when I drove it on 29 April. We'll stop for lunch around noon at Bassetts in Poolesville. Most roads are rural country roads with a couple higher-speed highways thrown in. Leisurely tour (avg of about 40 mph) of some Maryland roads leading up to the Washington Monument State Park after our lunch stop with a final stop at South Mountain Creamery. If you have 2-way radios - bring them - we'll be on 13.1
