This wormhole invites one to do a little cross country to connect parking lots. The win is that by doing this, the rider can avoid Rt. 50 when going from Jermantown Rd to Waples Mill. The path takes you over near the NRA building, so I’m calling it “Guns & NoRoads”

Looks innocent from this side

Looking back after successfully portaling through

I like this anomaly! Solid entry and exit. Solid name! 2Points.

You give a good description but the map, is rather tiny to see.

ride on.

Filipe, I know everyone loves this forum and it’s fun to see wormholes from everyone.

I created a Google Map (#Freezing Saddles WormHoles) to aid with collecting & finding wormholes.

• Anyone can view & edit
• This way you can see all the wormholes on a map in one place
• I started adding some wormholes posted on this forum already
• You can add a point, a line, or make a route (only if the route exists on Google maps)

I know you’ve been finding wormholes for years, so I thought the map would be a good way to start gathering them in one place.

Feel free to use, promote, modify, or ignore this completely.
Love to have any feedback or questions from anyone as well.
Google Maps can be a little awkward to figure out how to edit and use, but I don’t know anything that might be better/easier.

I LOVE IT! We got to teamwork this. Once one posts here on the forum, if one ***chooses one can add it to the google maps and make their own entry (Not required for WormHoling points as I don’t want it to be a barrier to discoveries). I will add some of the WOW entries or so. Or if anyone else is in the mood to Google it would be a good way to have them all in one place.

RIGHT ON!

WORMHOLE OF THE WEEK.
The WOW Report

Just a quick way to recognize the quirky warping mind bending explorations of our intrepid crew. I’ll aim for a Monday report each week

A straight up LOTM Custos Scientiae recognition to elizsnyder for the long ass named wormhole.

Intrauniverse Warmhole JMD-NLS.001x SnyAda …lexicon: JMD-NLS (John Marshall Drive-N Lexington St) 001x (first in that area) Sny (Snyder) Ada (Adams)

The fact is that it actually takes you longer to say the WHole name than to ride it, is Kudos enough, but what about the link she dropped about Intra-Universe wormholes and other Wholes???.

BikeDavid discovered a WarpBeerWormHole.… anything that gets me to beer faster is well played.

OG – First to VIDEO TECHNOLOGY! Ohh my the explorations that one can reveal. BUT also with the Original WormHole on the ChainBridge Connection to CCT. Well played.

Boomer – with plenty of entries, but wisely choose to rebrand one of his discoveries to R2D2 wormhole, who would’t want to ride that?

Catedrew – South Arlington Segregation Wormhole is one that warrants reflection and exploration.

Reji – had a strong entry with her multi-level Whole, but stole my hear and SarahB’s heart with the BEE fairweather wormhole. (It looks like an adorable WHole.)

Lefty – wants us to WormHole and explore art at the same time!!! Strong pull on the WormHole From Food to Thought.

BUT THE WOW — The ……….

CaseyKane50 which for some reason forgot to name the WormHole and choose to give us a riddle? “A wormhole that many pass, but few pass through” I am so not clear if CK50 actually was courageous enough to go through it by the description. But its such an anomaly that it actually has its own study: https://www.alexandriava.gov/uploade…016_030916.pdf

Any way, Sedar the explorer went forth and further reported on it and yet no name??? This very close to a FIVE IMPLODED STARS level WormHole!

The WOW of this week is the DirtyDukeDasher WormHole.

Ride on and explore!
f.out

This looks worthy as a #publicartfinder destination while in Reston on a #lakefinder quest!

Though about your Prize when I saw it. That WormHole is a piece of ART@!

Another wormhole maybe? I call this the Wunder Garden Express. This is the little trail that connects to the south end of the MBT that is sometimes locked and allows you to cut across to L St rather than dropping off at M St. Not as convenient with a bike since you have to go down a flight of stairs but it allows you to go to the front of the line at Wunder Garten!

David, one man’s WormHole is another man’s “ain’t no way I am going to creek my way down the steps” .

IT COUNTS.

Plus it WARPS me to the front of a beer line?

TWO POINTS Just for the copy status of your post.

Keep on discovering Warping Beer anomalies

Ride on.

Located in Reston, there are double tunnels that let you cross, without cars or lights, Reston Parkway and Colts Neck Court. You start at Southgate Rec Center by the basketball courts and take the path through the woods. The Reston Parkway tunnel is not photo worthy, but the Colts Neck tunnel is adorned with murals on both sides. Thoreau’s Ensemble contains over 700 art submissions from locals, young and old. More info: https://publicartreston.org/project/public-art-at-colts-neck-road-underpass/ In honor of the named tunnel, I’m calling my wormhole From Food to Thought. Best way is to meet at Hunters Woods Village center, take the loop around Wells Fargo bank and up to Southgate. Go west young man.

Ohhhhh that is a cool looking hole, that entrance alone makes one go interstellar! Well done

New wormhole for me today. #Research Wormhole

Just needed to do some “Research” to find it.
Near Rockville; a little sidewalk connecting Dundee Rd to some condos that can take you across MD28 to Research Blvd.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]22445[/ATTACH]

I am still researching this research anomaly, but right on with our Rockville explorations BigR.

Did Boomer force you to ride on a InterState Highway?

Right on, Great looking exploration.

This wormhole takes one from a sedate neighborhood to a residential living facility, just beyond which is Choolaah, a great Indian restaurant. Think “Chipotle” style service but with Indian food. Their approach makes it possible to try a bit of everything, which is awesome.

The wormhole also avoids Rt. 7 which is wise. The neighborhood on the eastern part of the wormhole is mostly families who have immigrated from a variety of places in the last 10-15 years and this wormhole gets a lot of use by essential workers who use bikes or walk to work.

We found this wormhole when looking for new destinations for our “Last Weekend Brunch Adventure” rides for our bike club. It was popular enough to merit repeat visits!

It’s in Loudoun County, so a bit of a hike for some of you, but if you’re coming out this direction to try it out, let me know – I bike for Choolaah!

Long way for a wormhole exploration but one might end up with great indian food!

I present to you the BEE fairweather wormhole, a cutthrough from one neighborhood to another in Falls Church …in an area constrained by the beltway and Rt 29. Both neighborhoods afford you routes to the North via Shreve or West. I’ve BEEn told that it gets very muddy after rain, so steer clear of this hyperlink to your Northern space travel destinations, lest you BEE bogged down in the BEE fairweather wormhold, never to escape.

That Beeutiful WormHole.
Sarah, you still get a point for inspiring the name and I think I might award another to Robyn for being pulled by gravitational wormhole first.

Happy WormHole Hunting!

Just be careful of the space slugs, as sometimes caves aren’t caves!

Ride on.
Enjoy your weekend.

This is a Duke-Street-side-view of a tunnel between Duke Street and Mill Road in Alexandria. According to GPS, it is at 35 S Dove Street.

I would not recommend it these days due to a deep puddle of rainwater.

Another view from Mill Road side

That is a WormHole that has been previously claimed, BUT per the new rules one must go out and further explore claimed wormholes to gather more knowledge and YOU did that! So 2POINTS. Also that is HeavyDutyScarySmelly WormHole, very close to a Top LEVEL 5 Wormhole. One of my favorites that I have ridden through and explored.

Ride on,

I was struggling for a name for this one and when I zoomed in to look at surrounding street names, to my surprise I saw that the path itself has a name — “Back Nine Path”. Shorter is better so I’ve named this wormhole that takes you from the noisy cars of Fairfax County Parkway Trail to the serene neighborhood path in Franklin Farms — Back9.

No “gritty city” cred for this one — it’s a truly suburban wormhole featuring a muddy path, inviting wooden bridge, and paved asphalt.

Looks like an inviting WormHole that has a strong gravitational pull. 2 Points.

The trail was resurfaced and footbridge repaired by the playground where W. Westmoreland Rd dead ends at Tripp’s Run. The trail behind TJ Elementary School though is still a rough ride and the most turbulent section of this R2D2 wormhole

R2D2 Wormhole is a catchy name!
