Crystal City Bike to Work Week

[creadinger]

That’s great! Except I need to get on the road at 6:30 to get to work on time. 7-9 only works for people riding TO Crystal City, not from it.

You are right, they do seem to be targeting the folks that work in Crystal City (which I think is great). Last year I had to work to hit the pit stop in Crystal City when it was open. I would normally blow through the Water Park about 0600 but put my miles on early and then hit the pit stop right as they opened.

BTWW, in which Forum denizens add 6 miles to their commutes for a granola bar and cup of OJ.

Wait, so Crystal City Water Park isn’t an actual water park, like with slides and stuff? I got so excited there for a minute….

It’s bagels and coffee. Totally different. And you know I put a 2″ layer of cream cheese on that bad boy.

The conversion table I use says 2 miles riding per 1/4 inch of cream cheese.

Saw the smiling faces of Joe from the BID and Zanna this morning:D Didn’t take one of those cinnamon sugar calorie bomb muffins, although I wanted to. Thanks for being out there Crystal City folks!

Hi All:

The Crystal City BID is doing Bike to Work Week again this year. We will be there everyday, rain or shine, from 7:00am to 9:00am. Stop by and say hi and grab some snacks. This year we will be giving out Crystal City Banjo Brother Backpacks to the top 50 riders. Hope to see you there.

More info on the Crystal City BID website.

Are any of the other places doing the whole week? Crystal City is about 2 hours away from me, and I hate mornings, so the likelihood I will get there before 9:00 AM is pretty slim.

I’m planning on being there every day of the week that I don’t have to lead a commuter convoy (BTWD)!

Those of us on weight watchers actually do a calculation similar to that

The backpacks for the Top 50 riders have arrived! Sign up here. Hopefully the weather for bike to work week will be like it is today.
