Thought I heard my name at one point. You were on foot heading east with a light on a lanyard?
Had an nice steady ride with dcv.

Yah, that was me on foot heading to get the offspring. I keep a white blinky on my shoe and a red on my pants to be visible to cyclists. I saw you coming and going. Thanks for calling your pass on the way back east!

Three sighting of the Eighth man in less than 24 hours.
Good to catch up, and nice to see you and be on a bike at the time…

And then I passed Dirt going the other way by the W&OD 4.5 mile marker.

Nice to see you, sir! Rock on!

Thanks so much for putting up with my riding this morning. Riding in with you the day after riding out with dcv really hammered home how lucky I am to have this commute.
Great start to what turned into a crazy day.

It was a pleasure to ride with a fixed gear rider, to help adjust my usual perspective (and my commute route) Great chatting about travels as well. Hope you got everything done you had to do.

DismalScientist passed me this morning at 15th and Independence as I casually rode to the always red light light at Jefferson and 14th.

I’m sorry I did not say hi. I guess I was in my own little world.

If you see an idiot with a moustache rolling right up Annandale road, that’s me.

I’ve definitely seen more than a few idiots on Annandale Road…

Nice riding in with essigmw this morning! He had already come quite a ways by the time he caught up with me at Gallows. Kudos to you and all long haul commuters.

Saw RootChopper yesterday biking back from the Hybla Valley Petsmart Lost Dog Rescue adoption event.

Saw RootChopper again today but he didnt have his distinctive reflective vest on so I didnt recognize him.

Saw ConsularRider who graciously yielded to me on the MVT under the Memorial bridge.

Boy its great when there is no one but us out on the trail!

Yes it was fun. It’s rare for me to get a sighting, even rarer to share a commute. Thanks for the nice conversation, and setting a good crisp pace.

Saw ConsularRider peel off the W&OD for 4MRT, thought that was the last I’d see of him, and then he passed me on the 4MRT after Shirlington.
