This happened to me recently. If you call, they will excuse you because you already served within the year.

Back hills of Druid Hill Park. Loop from behind forestry through the hills towards Woodberry. Take the switchbacks up, head through the disc golf course, and then through the park back towards the safety city, and repeat.

Nice long uphill from Charles on the Jones falls to the top of Druid hill park - has a switch back up to the park entrance then up from there. You can continue on the trail by the zoo - take a little down hill on another switch back - then cut across the service road that goes behind the zoo - a couple of good hills back there- it makes a loop and reconnects to the trail by the pool at Druid Hill.

We got hella river valleys around here! I grew up around Ellicott City and there are some mean hills down around Old EC (check out River Rd/Ilchester Rd/College Ave). That area ties into some two-lane country roads extending out into western Howard County (Triadelphia area) that my distance cycling buddies train on. You can kind of noodle around in and out of the Patapsco River valley to put on elevation. There are similar situations around rivers/reservoirs like Prettyboy or Loch Raven. All of this is about a half-hour drive outside the city.
