Alternatively, the lazy/non-abnormal could open a service ticket with Strava and they’ll reset it for you.
Yep, that’s what I did. Apparently not an uncommon problem.

I want to gravel grind! Good deal for this Van Dessel?
54cm? That totally won’t fit you.
Me, though…

Microfiber ties?! Quelle horror.
You can get them in silk so they won’t chafe your delicate sensibilities.
We wound up going Gary to Shelley to the elementary school – there’s a teeny little path you can squeeze through to cut across the playground. Not ideal but it got the job done
Alright, we’re going to venture out this weekend.
I think we’ll try Fillmore to Dawes, cut through the NVCC campus and hit that last bit of Beauregard up to Walter Reed.

It was a good catch. As it turns out, Segways are not permitted on the trail.
From the NPS web site http://www.nps.gov/gwmp/planyourvisit/mtvernontrail.htm
Motorized vehicles, including skateboards, bicycles, scooters, and Segways are not allowed on the Mount Vernon Trail. Persons with disabilities may use motorized wheelchairs on the trail.
But you CAN use Segways on the CCT, which sounds pretty darn entertaining.
The trail is multi-use in various sections. Pedestrians, joggers, bikers, skaters and equestrians share different parts of the trail. Some of the trail sections will not be appropriate for some uses. For example, much of the Difficult Run portion of the trail will not be surfaced and is frequently muddy, with steep slopes and narrow passages. Many parts of the Accotink Stream Valley portion of the trail are paved and not appropriate for equestrian use. Motorized vehicles are not allowed on any part of the trail. The exception is for Electric Personal Assistive Mobility Devices (Segways and similar devices).
So where can we rent a bunch of these things?
