I don’t think you’ll get anything from VDOT, but you definitely get a gold star from BikeArlington!

He should get 2 for being a P.A.L.!

I guess I could wear my full-face downhill helmet and put on the downhill body armor… However, given that gusts of 50mph are expected, I’ll probably work from home. That’s just not ride-able. (I’ve tried, and was literally picked up and dropped 6 feet from where I’d been… in the ONCOMING lane of traffic when a 50mph gust hit me from the right side. That was the last time I rode in, or will ever ride in sustained winds over 30mph with higher gusts)

um, ok, so, you’re saying it’s, like, kind of serious? holy shit batman… I was thinking, “how bad could it really be?”. Even thinking if it wasn’t all THAT bad, I’d ride. The visual of being picked up and dropped in an oncoming lane of traffic has me convinced 😮 I think I would’ve shat myself.

I’m pretty certain we won’t need any additional devices to capture wind on Tuesday, I’m seriously considering being a total wimp and driving that day or wearing my hockey equipment on the bike for extra protection!

So, it might turn out that no one can get a free beer just for performing their civic duty. What a waste. Why would you even bother voting at this point?

exactly, guess I’ll stay home this year!

The BAC will be discussing marketing efforts to grow their visibility and membership at the next meeting. I think Megan said this type of outreach would be one of the topics. I highly encourage you to attend.

is there any kind of tie-in between WABA and Maryland? I always see plenty of activity in DC and VA, but it all seems to be separate from the MD-inside-the-beltway stuff. Or I’m just looking in the wrong place….

I’ll be riding 85mms in the front and a disc in the back. Hopefully we can get a KOM on at least one side!

Brakes? With all that wind? Why bother, I’ll be right behind you though. With the storm surge as high as what they’re calling for, I’m bringing this:

So what you guys are saying is if I affix a sail to my bike and am going in the proper direction then I won’t have to do any work? Sounds awesome.
