OneEighth Sighting

Spotted consularrider going NW on the W&OD today. I was a bit slow in recognition due to squinting through the drizzle.

Where was that, Glencarlyn? Too much rain splatter on my glasses to recognize anyone.

Just saw that now, and came over here to post about it. Nice catch!

Should we change the forum title to MAMIL sighting?

Did one-eighth have a bagel in his mouth?

[americancyclo]

Only 1/8th MAMIL. And, yes, the bagel was yummy. Knew that guy with the camera was up to no good.

Saw Dickie yesterday on the WO&D and 1/8th today on the MVT. Zoom, zoom.

I saw some guy towing a WABA bike-lanes-are-not-parking-lanes billboard up the overpass on the MVT, near the airport. Looked just like Dirt. The sign is the one he rides with. But there are no bike lanes on the trail? Was it really Dirt? Or does he actually haul that sign from DC to Fairfax everyday? Seems like a lot of weight to tow around. But it could help for super-tough hill workouts.

Once his cast is off he plans to do fully loaded 41st St hill repeats. Lots of fun on the switchbacks at the top of the climb.

Saw Dirt and his sign near the Jefferson. I think he was encouraging people not to park on the 14th Street bridge.

But it’s such a nice parking lot…

[KLizotte]

Yup, that was Dirt. He did a bike flyby in Shirlington for the coffee club members with his sign in tow. I’m sure the other trail users were a little…..confused.

I also saw Shawn of the Dread heading east on 4MR.
