I am always jealous of Virginia for having this. Since I bike in DC and Maryland, it would be way out of my way.

Ahh so that’s how it works! So go every day? Do they have *coffee*??!!

Yes. Go every day. Last year they had coffee and squagels from Cosi every day. They also gave really good swag every day (bike bag, CO2, cycling cap, cycling socks and a super special gift if you attended all five days). Bike to Work Week was where Komorebi, LSG and I became bicycle best friends last year and was also the inspiration for the Crystal City Coffee Club.

You know the hours I work. No way would I get up a couple of hours early for this.

ARGH!!!! I wonder if I can flex my schedule a bit this year to get there at 07:00 every day. I REALLY want one of those awesome jerseys!

The jersey is legit and good quality. I love mine from 2 years ago. Plus, they also had women’s sizes 2 years ago which I really appreciated! Hopefully they will again this year.
