    I will start out and hang at the back, but don’t know if I have the legs to finish.

    My problem isn’t that I don’t have the legs… It is that I’ve got too much belly. ;)

    Had some sinus problems this morning. Then I realized that I had an Airbus A320 up my nose. I feel better now.

    H-Street has signs warning cyclists. They also installed counterflow lanes on G and I streets to make it easier to ride one block on either side of H.

    Still gotta be careful, but they’re trying to make things work a little more smoothly.

    Stratasys 3D Printed frame. It weighs a ton, but it was interesting to see what can be done.

    We all need to drive now and then. That isn’t unusual.

    What’s awesome is that he does so with safety in mind. He drove off with his helmet on. :D

    And get nailed by cars pulling away from the curb when the driver can’t see past the car in front of him.

    I did a little testing of that walking along behind parked cars. Visibility is a TON better than on a normal bike lane where you’re coming from behind. There will always be issues with panel vans and stuff like that, but Generally this appears at first glance to be better than riding along a row of parked cars in the same direction.

    Cars go one way. Bikes go both.
