I would love to see us set up a semi-regular TE-DC road ride, perhaps once a month. If we could get a fairly regular group we could then take turns being the group leader and picking the route.

I've asked the forum administrator to add a Mid-Atlantic section to the "Places to Ride" forum. If they agree, hopefully it will make it easier to organize this sort of thing.
