Take I-195 exit 3 onto Route 1 South to Elkridge. Go .5 miles and turn right onto South Street. Turn left onto the park entrance road. Take the park entrance road for 1 mile to the stop sign. Turn left and park in the parking lot on the right. To get to the trailhead, turn right on the paved road behind the parking lot. Go for about 300 yards and turn left onto the gravel road. This gravel road will take you up to the network of singetrack trails.

Oh yea, that. I'll be off from work as I'll be dealing with my tires. I'm betting Jeff will be the LCD. Jeff, what time do you think you can get there?

I'm a little fuzzy on these directions. I think this A -> B is the first leg of those directions (entrance to stop sign), but then the map seems to depart from the directions.

Should it be, left at stop sign onto gun rd, then right at river road, and park here?

Just want to make sure I understand exactly where we're meeting. It'd be a shame to ride in and then not be able to find you guys.

Yea, that sounds correct. This should make more sense.

No now I'm just more confused. Those directions just don't seem to fit with the satellite images on google. Can you just stick a waypoint on a google map, and say "we're meeting exactly here"?
