    DrP, I am 99.9% sure they have bike parking there, but haven’t laid eyes on it yet. Thanks for the prompt on updating this site. We’ll get over there in the next few days.

    Please also let us know if you have any special requests for breakout rooms. We will pre-set them for all the Teams 1-30, but if you want, say, a CalvinBall Room, or Ricky’s Photo Contest Room, please post it hear or email me at Henry.Dunbar[at]bikearlington.com.

    Yes, there is a soft-launch in progress while they work out some of the Tech bugs. Limited number of users and invite only for the moment.

    Anyone able to report on the conditions of 4 Mile Run trail, the MVT (especially around National airport), or the 14th Street Bridge?? I’m especially concerned about the overpasses/bridge areas being icy.

    I know parts of the trails were prepped with anti-ice solution, but that only works if you also clear the snow/ice.

    W&OD and FMR trails in Shirlington/Barcroft area were 95% clear. Just occasional patches of ice at 7am Wednesday. I did not go past Shirlington Road.

    When I first saw your post, for some reason I couldn’t shake the thought of a haiku:

    Starting this month’s thread
    Slick glare ice is everywhere
    Use extreme caution

    Thank you for the edits. Will try to make my future posts into poems (though more likely to be Limericks).

    DrP:

    Looks like confirming of the phone number with your account is the answer. In early 2020 riders had to update their accounts (yes, there were more earlier emails to users about updating). We had to do this with the launch of ebikes, and because we had seen a big spike in stolen bikes in the past two years. This phone number verification was part of tightening the security measures.

    Part of that process linked an existing member’s old key fob to their new account (identified via phone verification). If the account did not update or link the key properly, the key FOB would stop working. Members were allowed to ride for a period of time without upgrading due to Covid-19, but this was phased out late fall/early winter. Riders can link any unpaired fob to their account, but they must log in online themselves to add this.

    Whenever a disabled FOB tries to unlock a bike, the phone number or email associated with the old account receives a notification, hence the 51 emails. We are also confirming that customer service should be directing riders with a key to add it to their account.

    I’ve also attached a .pdf of screen shots to walk through the process. Hope this helps.

    Of course, downloading the app will also let you unlock right away.

    Dr. P, I’ll look into this. You are correct. It shouldn’t be this hard.

    I’m think the Calvin and Hobbes Fan Club is a good name, though a little long.

    Any other nominations?

    Yes, we can leave the Zoom open for an extra 30 minutes after the official meeting is over.

    Also, as of this morning, we have 118 people registered for the BAFS HH.

    This has been fixed. Never knew we had to manually reset the range. The Tall Guy used to do that. Learn something new everyday.

    So you can put the mushroom cloud away. The world does not end at midnight.
