Meadowcreek Golf Course, Pen Park Road, Charlottesville, VA, USA
There is a pun here about “Tiger Woods” and something about disc golf being played in the woods, but I am not intelligent enough to figure it out. I will cut straight to the chase and share my plan with you. We are going to bike to Meadowcreek Disc Golf Course (near the Bodo’s on 29) and play 9 – 18 holes of disc golf.
THE PLAN
-Meet at the Shred Shrack at 9:55am to bike to Meadowcreek.
-bike 2.5 miles. Part of this is on 29, but we will bike on the sidewalk for that stretch. You should know how to ride a bicycle ideally.
-arrive at Meadowcreek, and begin playing disc golf. We will play either 9 or 18 holes, depending on how we’re feeling.
-bike 2.5 mi back to the Shred Shack, perhaps stopping at the nearby Bodo’s for a little brunch if people are interested.
-My internal calculations tell me that leaving at 10 to play disc golf and bike 5 miles should take no more than 2.5 hours. However, if you are on an absolute time crunch for something at 12:45 or 1 or something, just carefully consider if you want to join this trip.
What you need:
-a bike: I have made sure that there will be at least 3 club road bikes available for this trip, so if you do not have your own bike, say so on the sign up form for this trip.
-discs: I will bring enough discs for the four of us, but if you have your own discs, please feel free to bring them. Note that discs for disc golf are different from a “normal” frisbee.
-water + maybe a $5 bill for Bodo’s?: I would encourage you to bring water, probably in a small backpack that you can bike with. This will be a rather short bike ride, and disc golfing is pretty low key, so you would be fine without it I think, but hydration is key.
If you have any questions, please feel free to email me.
