Our rides have taken us across the whole map of the Loudoun Historic Village Alliance: through every one of its ten living villages, through the vanished villages of Willisville and Bowmantown, to the doorstep of Between the Hills, and on to Middleburg, Upperville and Bloomfield. More than 1,250 village passes since 2009, from our own Strava and Ride with GPS logs.
Each card counts the rides that went through that village and links the Ride Library courses that do the same.
