Hi all,

It was great to meet many of you at the opening happy hour last week. This is my first freezing saddles and my first winter in DC. So far I’m disappointed with the small amount of snow and large amount of salt…. and very much relating to this article in the post https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/style/dear-northerners-we-get-that-this-weather-is-no-big-deal-for-you-now-please-shut-up/2018/01/04/2084459a-f0ba-11e7-b390-a36dc3fa2842_story.html

I live in Mount Pleasant and work just south of Dupont. I’m a daily bike commuter and sometimes will squeeze a long weekend ride in. I’m generally down for some post-work rides during the week. For those I might transition from my trusty 80s schwinn steel commuter clunker to my road bike.

Looking forward to riding with you all!

– Claire

I’m in. Excited to find out the team announcements and figure out if anyone else I saw riding into work today is on my team.

Can this be mandatory reading for happy hour? Sorry to my mid-atlantic and southern friends for constantly saying “it’s not that bad outside.”

Dear Northerners: We get that this weather is no big deal for you. Now please shut up.

That was my first HP 100 and it was a wonderful event.

Thanks for all the organizers and volunteers!
