    Local chainsaw artist Andrew Mallon has created a lot of cool chainsaw sculptures in the area, so I’m planning a ride to visit some of them. Read more about the artist at https://patch.com/virginia/arlington-va/chainsaw-artist-preps-sculptures-fairfax-city-arlington.

    If you’re interested, meet at Northside Social in Falls Church (205 Park Avenue) on Sunday, February 20 at 10:00 a.m. Current draft route is at https://ridewithgps.com/routes/28597489. No drop, casual pace, and I won’t be going quickly on the hills.

    This ride is open to all BAFS participants and friends who are vaccinated against COVID. If you are not yet fully vaccinated, stay tuned for future rides.

    I am in! Thanks for organizing!

    I actually put together a google doc last year with as many sites of his that I could find – hopefully you can access it, maybe you’ll even find some more! – https://docs.google.com/document/d/14KHlPjYTyFBMCo-swurtIFZ78u7rBF0dDLlPfE2RsEY/edit#heading=h.s53tr3h8639x

    Yes, accordioneur sent me your Google doc, which I used in putting together the ride. Thanks for compiling everything!

    This sounds cool, and Andrew’s works were popular finds during BAFS2021 #publicartfinder competition. I regret that I’ll be out of town for this, but would love to ride it another time. Looking forward to what you find.

    I plan to join the ride. Looking at the route, I think I will drop out around after lake barcroft and head home from there.

    Thanks to everyone who came out! It was good to see old friends — including some I hadn’t seen in a while, like wheels & wings — and meet new ones. Special thanks to caseykane50 for sweeping.

    What a festive and fascinating ride, Komorebi. Thank you so much for organizing and leading!! It was wonderful to ride with y’all and to see the creative tree-stump sculptures. Thanks, Casey, for hanging back each time I wanted just-one-more picture! :)
