Potomac Peddlers (PPTC) is a good group and does many rides at all levels every weekend. Rides are free and open to non-members. They do require helmets, although it's up to the ride leader for enforcement. I've only seen one or two people ride without a helmet in my 8 years of PPTC rides.
The Oxon Hill club is also a good group. Their helmet rules are similar to the PPTC's

You also might want to post in the alt forum. There used to be a "DC Bike Pirates" thread, but I think they took their discussion outside of BF
DC is a good place for solo riding, but if you need company/native guide you can post here just before you arrive and see if anyone is available to hook up with.
