Sea levels are rising, our portion of the Chesapeake Basin is “settling,” and Washington DC is projected to see a dramatic increase in tidal flooding in the next 10 – 25 years. In fact, DC is predicted to experience tidal flooding twice as bad as any city along the East Coast! Join Jeff Miller, the DC Cycling Concierge for a fascinating and enlightening ride around many of DC’s landmarks and thoroughfares that exist where they do because of our geological and geographic history and learn how much of DC is at significant risk due to climate change. On this 3-hour bike tour we will go rollin’ along the rivers, canal ways and flood prone areas of our great city, which also happen to be some of the more scenic and vibrant neighborhoods. The 10-mile ride will include some city streets, but the route will be mostly on streets with bike lanes, bike trails, and even a few sidewalks (where it is legal to do so) and it will include several stops.
