Re: 15 mph.

Okay, then. There’s a sign. On the MVT somewhere.
No limit on the Custis or W&OD however, I think. Nor the CCT in DC I’m certain. Anacostia Trails? MBT?

Also, I imagine there’s an 11 mph grace limit just like cars.

There is also a sign hidden in the woods that has the trail speed limit.

Some of the trail kiosks now have trail rules posted which indicate 15 mph.

One of the etiquette yard signs that the FOMVT has posted on the trail also indicates a 15 mph speed limit.

Is this the hidden sign you’re referencing (just south of Gravelly Point) or are there more?

That’s it! Tucked away in the woods as all good signs are.

I believe this is also in the NPS regs on the GW Parkway. But I don’t have time to look that up today.

It is also included in Section 4.30 of the GWMP Compendium which contains all of the Park’s rules related to bicycle use: https://www.nps.gov/gwmp/learn/management/upload/GWMP-Compendium-508.pdf
