It's still a hot spot for triathletes. I don't bike there often, but the famous DCRainmaker features the park on his blog pretty regularly. Although he has a 7 mile loop he rides there. http://www.dcrainmaker.com/...on-dc-resources.html

If I find myself all the way out there it is usually for a trail run.

Thank you for your response and for the link. A 7 mile loop will be worth the drive down 95. Again, thank you!

The park is still an excellent place to train. Last year they had all the roads torn up. They have re-surfaced the entire road so it really is nice now. There is the 7 mile loop with the 2-ish mile access road to the loop. Lots of hills out there. It is a $5/car admission fee (or $20 annual pass). The thing to watch with the park though is the traffic down to it. If you are going North/South on I-95, you want to try and time it with which direction has the HOV lane (much less traffic that way) or just go early-ish (then it doesn't matter much).

Thank you, Creese. Nice to learn about the resurfacing. Makes me excited about going to the park. It will bring back many memories to bike it again.

Also, thank you for the traffic info. Have a good weekend of training!
