Narrative:
I departed hef on runway 34R. I requested and was given a right turn out by tower. Tower reminded me of the class B airspace. While concentrating on missing R6608B, I climbed to 3600 ft. Tower called and asked my altitude and then noted my incursion into class B. I immediately descended below 3000 ft. Tower called and told me to contact dulles approach upon landing. I called dulles approach and was admonished to be more vigilant in the future.
