    It’s not public art if you have to pay to see it, and no bike (that I can see) in the pic, so regretfully this pic does not qualify.

    2/21 – Does it still count as public art if it serves as an invitation to pay for access to private art? Why did I not get my bike in frame (it’s to the right)? At 524 Rhode Island Ave NE (near metrobar) is the Van Gogh Immersive Experience. They’ve painted a large mural on the outside of the strip mall building (slated to be torn down as part of the redevelopment’s next phase).

    That’s a great mural but since there is no bike in it, it regretfully doesn’t count

    2/20 – A DC Go-go mural painted last April on a market at the corner of Alabama and Randall SE. (Someone started “encouraging” me to go back to my own neighborhood so I did not get a good picture with my bike in frame. Sorry!)

    As a bonus: here’s a brief video of part of the painting in progress https://youtu.be/N9kdiChXLQc 2c70b1b803a29e2fedc20621db7ca4ea.jpg

    Faceless cabal, I forgot to include my bike in the photo. However, I was there. You can check my Strava feed. Thanks!

    And looks like you might’ve forgotten to add a part of your bike in the photo, too, so regretfully no points for this submission

    I think I posted this by accident – it’s probably 1 more than my mileage on 2/20, no bike in the pic, and maaaaybe Serdar already posted it. But ain’t it purty? [emoji3]

    2/20/22 – 1 more chainsaw art pic from Saturday
    Idk if you’re rounding up or down, so I may not be allowed a3rd for Saturday…. but you all hafta see this!
    (You could always use some of Sunday’s miles, if that’s legal. I only got one pc of art Sunday in 27 miles – on the way out before the wind got too serious for me to even think about messing with my phone ….[emoji33][emoji100])

    Anyhow this huge cat lives in someone’s ride in Lake Barcroft. I hadda walk up a private driveway to get this one & the dog was baking in the house sooooo I left my [emoji605] at the base with the rest of the riders

    Buoyant Force by Sue Wrbican is a 50-foot steel sculpture inspired by the paintings of American Surrealist Kay Sage (b. 1898, Albany, New York; d. 1963, Woodbury, Connecticut). Sage is recognized for her paintings of scaffolded structures and furled fabric in desolate landscapes. This is the sculpture Tephra ICA commissioned Wrbican to realize at full-size in Reston Town Square Park.

    Thanks Boomer for sponsoring this prize. Even though i was not a regular contributor, you got me to ten miles when i might not have otherwise. “No bike in pic” seems to have been a recurrent theme. Thinking it was because we got confused with the scavenger hunt rules.

    very cool, but no bike in the pic, so no points can be awarded

    Well done! “WWBD” LOL:-) I may have to create bonus points for pandering…

    Publicartfinder#2 for today (yes, in the 2nd 10 miles).

    Boomer, I looked at the sculpture and thought, “WWBD?” So I laid down on the ground and got the cat and that amazing sky.

    You’re welcome. :-)
