welcome Kenny! There’s a free blinky light event on Monday that might be of interest to you. Also, there’s lots of good information about lights, clothing and pretty much everything else you might want to know.
You might pass me going in the opposite direction. I ride from Falls Church to DC on the W&OD and Custis. look for the big purple bike. It’s hard to miss.
Welcome aboard, Kenny! Yes, bike commuting opens up another world, and not only keeps one fit, but lowers commuting costs dramatically as well. Stay safe and enjoy.
A free blinky light event?! Tell me more! All I’ve got is my headlight
If you pass through the intersection of Lee Hwy and Lynn St (the beginning of the Custis Trail) between 4:30 and 6:30pm on Monday, say hi to the friendly Bike Arlington folks giving out free blinky lights.
Welcome! We share a commuting route. If you see a bike that is too large to be allowed piloted by some guy wearing pink and possibly singing really badly, that’s likely me.
I’ll be handing out lights and reflective gear Monday. Swing by and introduce yourself.
I found you guys out of general boredom @ work. I was searching for DC pike baths and stumbled upon y’all. Being a forum-junkie, I couldn’t help but sign up!
Your enthusiasm reminds me of me when I discovered I could bike all the way to work (instead of just to the metro). Fun stuff. Nothing like getting paid to take a long bike ride every day! (Work being a lengthier-than-usual rest stop at the turnaround point.)
