What section are your seats? Maybe I’ll come find you during the game.

Steve O: Thank you. Ride was awesome, company was awesome, being at the ballpark was awesome, even if it was a “crash & burn” on the Nats’ part.

Now about that parking lot @ RFK- I rode out to the apex of turn 2 of a race track. 16 years ago, this happened- American Le Mans Series Cadillac GP: [ATTACH=CONFIG]18230[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]18231[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]18232[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]18233[/ATTACH] A midsummer nights’ dream of a race that delivered on everything except the promise of noise control. One & done.

It was so nice to meet you all! Thanks Steve-O for putting together such a cool ride, with interesting historical stops, and perfect weather. Thanks Karen for introducing me to Rapha today and for inviting me. What a great first ride with Bike Arlington! Finally getting the hang of using this message board too

It was a fun time! But I still hate you and your (up)hills SteveO.

Steve O, kwarkentien, streetsmarts, Henry et al: Hope you got across the river before *these* marauding a******* appeared- https://wtop.com/dc/2018/08/a-dangerous-spectacle-at-least-3-of-150-atv-drivers-arrested-for-sunday-ride/

After I peeled off, it took maybe 10 minutes to complete my District Hardware shopping mission and roll westbound. I saw (and heard) a half-dozen of these fools on Maine. I was on the cycletrack, and for that moment at least, they didn’t screw around there. I went on my way back to the Pike without further concern. Only later did I learn what we missed…

We got to say good bye to the parking lot race course. Just. In. Time.

The redevelopment (and rebirth) of the RFK Stadium campus begins: https://wtop.com/dc/2018/08/at-long-last-first-stage-of-rfk-redevelopment-breaks-ground/slide/7/
