    What are the rules about location?

    If I happen to plan a few out of town trips during FS, may I count those visits?

    New Year’s Day Beerneuring at Bluejacket with Komorebi. Bluejacket is my favorite brewpub. Yummy falafel burger paired with a Houses in Motion, which was described as a “Super Saison”. Bluejacket typically has a lot of farmhouse beer options. This beer was fruity with coriander, black pepper, ginger and light hops.

    I decorated it with my sweet Freezing Saddles zipper pull.

    I earned a point in Los Angeles last year.

    If you ride your bike to them and follow the rules, then no problem!

    Sounds like a good opportunity to host a Social Butterfly event.

    Bummer that this is before the start date of the Social Butterfly event… (hmm… should I change the start date?!)

    But if you are interested in joining in (13 breweries!), let me know and I will fill you in on the details.

    13 Breweries in one ride, or even one day is a lot. I may have some experience in this. There are others that may have the same experiences.

    If you think 13 breweries is going to win this challenge, I have a bridge for sale that might interest you.

    Touche….

    But the most I have ever done in one day is seven, so this is going to be an adventure for sure.

    However, I do think maybe I will organize a W&OD brewery ride a little later in the competition to hit up some of the outer breweries in VA. Stayed tuned for more detail on that later this month!

    Also, I didn’t mean to criticize your awesome idea, I’m simply jealous that I am otherwise engaged tomorrow.

    I did this on the last day last year – turns out that Old Ox is almost exactly 50km from my house so the round trip makes for a nice metric century. I should have planned better, though – I stayed too long at each and only managed to hit 3.

    I would certainly join that.

    There’s a new, superhero-themed brewery opening in Woodbridge tomorrow. Heroic Aleworks. A quick Google search suggests there are at least three other breweries in Woodbridge: Ornery, Growling Bear (that’s two separate breweries!!), and Brew Republic. I’ve never been down there. A group ride south might be in order, as well.

    Just FYI from a PW rider, Depending on the route you design, there is another new brewery in Woodbridge/Lake Ridge area. Waters End Brewery off Old Bridge Rd, about 3 miles from Growling Bear with a bike path the majority of the way. Riding from Growling towards Ornery and across 95 to Brew Republic may be a challenging route with the traffic and no bike lanes/paths. Manassas has a few breweries that you could combine with Growling and Waters End. Bad Wolf and Heritage. Biking between Lake Ridge and Manassas is fine, wide shoulders and a path the entire way 20 ish miles. Just unsolicited input.
