The Shady Grove station is the end of the Red Line, one stop past the Rockville station going north. Union Station is on the Red Line as well, if you were going into town to meet Benquo for a ride, or take the train. Going south, its two stops past the Gallery Place—Chinatown stop.
This area is really difficult to arrange meetups, it seems, despite the close proximity mileage wise. The DC and Baltimore gravity wells really slow down travel times. I’ve been idly thinking of suggesting Terrapin Adventures as an outing ( http://www.terrapinadventures.com/ , located in Savage, MD). but I just don’t know if people would be able to make it, due to things like available public transportation. Anyway, hope this meetup is successful, and spawns meetings in DC, Howard, Montgomery, etc.
Slightly easier for me would be to meet at a metro station further in (I’m at Van Ness, but as far up as Medical Center wouldn’t be out of the way either) and pick you up there.
But there are often delays on the weekend, which could add a good bit to your travel time.
I live in Rockville, is that at all on the way?

Rockville is kinda-sorta on the way for me.
