3/18 arty lights – nevermind, untagging on Strava since I’m my hurry to take a few photos before the final Haines Point map I forgot to include my bike, doh! But since I didn’t see how to delete the post, I want to say thanks so much for running the publicartfinder competition, Karen, and thanks for everyone for pointing out some awesome art!

3/18 spelt – Cherry cyclists under Cheery blossoms – should I have spelt that differently? Maybe not!

3/17 rainbow over DC

Decided not to ride to the parts of DC where getting dozens of flags is easy as shooting fish in a barrel and instead give myself a real challenge.

Just kidding. Wasn’t feeling well so decided to aim for a few close enough to home to not break a sweat. I think I ended up with 17 new…in honor of 3/17, let’s say! More than I thought would be left. Congrats on everyone’s big finds!

3/17 snort

“A winter cycling competition?!” she scoffed with a snort. “Why, sure, I would enter that. When pigs fly!”

Snort!

3/16 toxin – Today’s word led to an interesting discussion of “toxin” versus “toxicant” or “toxic” when kidSnowy suggested biking along the MBT to photograph the sign about the Ft. Meyer request for a permanent permit for their asphalt operation. It’s great @LhasaCM posted that and raised awareness! I think it fits with the colloquial use of “toxin.” But to be annoyingly pedantic, I stuck with the definition that toxins are of biological origin.

Daffodils contain the toxin lycorine, which when consumed can cause sickness or even death.

@matteblack congrats on your long ride and 61 flags! This may be it for the competition!

3/16 just one for me – U.S. Army

@cvcalhoun. Yes! No more than 3 flags from one location. Essentially, you can get many flags on one ride and all existing rules apply. Only post one to forum though, since it’s time consuming.

 

My goal was giving everyone the flexibility to choose which day is better for you, but not to much time to plan too much in advance.

And would you need all new locations that haven’t been used so far in this competition?

Congrats to the winners! Thank you for running this game, Carol! Helped keep us all moving for sure. I’ll think of it every time I see a yellow car, at least in the near future!

3/15 erupt – ants were erupting from this sidewalk crack. Their motion was eerie!

PS holy cow drevil and cvcalhoun’s shots!

3/15 National Mall and Capitol with Colorectal Cancer awareness exhibit

I think it counts for art and awareness and more picturesque than the more traditional art from the ride today. I lost my father to colorectal cancer in 2022 so it’s extra meaningful to me. Get your colonoscopy as recommended!

3/15 Securities and Exchange Commission in the middle

3/14 since – It’s been a while since my path was blocked by a rogue flying watermelon!

I moved the cart out of the way but had to leave the watermelon.
