I will be sending them a proposed schedule. How’s this?

6 pm Starting time
6:15 pm First batch of food
6:45 pm Second batch of food
7:10 pm Closing ceremonies and prizes…. (This assumes the ceremony will last about one hour. Does that seem about right? We have a LOT of prizes to give out)
8:15 pm Third batch of food ….(Does this make sense, or will folks be racing home as soon as the ceremony is over?)

Thanks for any input! w&w

Not that my inexperience with a closing FS ceremony is worth anything, but the schedule seems good to me. Do we need to bring a $10 entry fee again?

Couldn’t think of a specific spot for Bad Brains, but they did perform at the Original 9:30 club which was here at 930 F Street and it’s hard to believe this bustling white collar shopping/business strip of D.C. was once crowded with punk rockers like I was in my teenage years. Wish I could have been here!

What used to be the flagship Landsburgh department store (8th and E), eventually became the Landsburgh cultural center for a few brief years, and only venue where Minor Threat performed their song “Salad Days” live just this one time. I listened to “Salad Days” album on my way over. Another location could be “Inner Ear Studios” where the “Salad Days” was recorded over in Arlington right off 4 mile run.
This gave some insight to what it was like back then: https://pages.vassar.edu/musicalurbanism/2013/06/04/view-from-suburbia-dks/

Plenty of traffic. No signs of trafficking

Man, I was going to go there for lunch today.

There is a Thomas Selfridge gate too.

Here is the real location of the 1972 ICCC held at the Washington Hilton, also where Reagan was shot.
Had to bikeshare to get there!

[benihana]

I know I know, I just probably won’t be able to get over there today

And Benihana gets the point for noticing that Gandhi was still in play

Next: Cornelius Hawkins

I was surprised he was still up for grabs after 6 days.

Here Gandhi, borrow my bike, you look tired

Just want to make sure I’ve got the Hashtag right:

#FS18midnight

&

#FS18midnight2-for or #FS18midnight 2-for ?

It’s down to 6 more needing to be sold. I just bought 3.

Did anyone else consider taking a photo of the White House for this one? 😮

Hey gang,

If we end up going with Cyclepaths, should it be “Team 10 – Cyclepaths” or something like that?

I’m fine with whatever, and I’m not saying Cyclepaths is the final consensus for our team name either.

However, if we do, I gathered some images that could possibly be used for our Strava icon.
They can be viewed here: https://photos.app.goo.gl/IziJTBREh8Ai75Bj1

Again, just some suggestions.

Hey guys, I’m Ben Johnson on Strava. I was at the Happy hour last night and met Bryan and “Fast Friendly Guy” (can’t remember his real name)

I found our Strava team 10 club, and put a post with some name ideas. I’ll go ahead and post them here too, but I do like “No pun in 10”:

Team 10 speed
Team 10 degrees
Saddles up
Cyclepaths
Tour de freeze
Vicious Cycle

Yo Adriaaaaaan! Wait, wrong movie.
