I am riding to Deals Gap this weekend and am leaving Baltimore on Wednesday(tomorrow) to meet with a group in Manassas. This is usually a short ride, so a friend of mine and i are going to leave Baltimore around 11am, and leisurely make our way to Manassas by 8ish.
I know a large amount of folks here on the board are from the area and i am asking for some spots we could hit to make the ride interesting.....roads, landmarks, scavenger hunt....
One spot i want to check out is Marlboro raceway (http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&msa=0&msid=100075391582692274785.00000112964dafe13983a&ll=38.817107,-76.743364&spn=0.047147,0.082226&z=14)...old abandoned race track(turn on satellite imagery).
Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated

How'd you create all thos different icons in you google map BTW?
you should stop by a Borders or Barnes and Noble and look for a book called "Weird Maryland" which is a part of a a series of books on the weird things in and around the country in various locale's...might give you some other exploration ideas...
