    Is the Point of Rocks crossing a typo – 1/1? I didn’t realize that you could go backwards in time.
    Congrats regardless. We had two MD members of our team who were inconveniently located, so we got 7 birdges by 7 members. (Plus a bunch of extras that Vince & Greg crossed on a weekend “crash the bridges” ride last Saturday.)

    Not a typo. We adjusted our plan after this.

    Makes sense.

    For the record, I didn’t realize that E Capital and Benning Rd had been added to the list already. Those were the two I was lobbying for. I rode The east side of the Anacostia trail and crossed on Benning on Jan 1. It was a great ride. Do rides before the side bet was announced, but during freezing saddles count?

    Since it’s all for fun, yes. We will have a more challenging bridge challenge later in the winter and I will include a more thorough list of bridges. For this one I don’t want to confuse people and change the list too much.
