    You could go via Pentagon parking area and Army Navy Drive to avoid going under I-495 and Long Bridge Dr.

    Talk to me about the “special children’s course”

    There were three heats. The first one was for the youngest kiddos and was maybe 10 laps on a roped/taped off area. I saw a mix of tricycles, balance bikes and training wheels in this one. The second heat was for the 5 and up crowd. The last heat was on the Diamond Derby track for the older kids. After the 2nd heat a bunch of kids kept riding around the roped off area. The surface down there can be slick, so be prepared to see kids go down.

    My only issue was the bathroom situation which was a portajohn outside a few levels up.

    Really looking forward to attending again!

    Doh! Using a bogus address and name backfired this time.

    Short answer – I didn’t go to the game.
    Long answer – I knew it was coming up and finally made the connection that it was at RFK a week before it. Ticket prices were kinda silly and it was an exhibition game. Plus Germany wasn’t going to have their full team with the Bundesliga guys playing in multiple Championships.

    Not sure if this has been brought up yet. What about the Torker Interurban? I stopped by Silver Cycles last week and they had 4 in stock.

    Did Kasper drop it off and pick it up? How did you lock it up while out and about?

    I was there but vvil is still on injured reserve. We are hoping he will be able to rejoin the ranks of the riders soon.

    That was me with Bilsko right behind me.

    I was in a bus shelter for 10 minutes trying to convince myself that it was made of lightning proof materials. Then of course as I headed out again there was more thunder and lightning.

    You: Jogger that came out of nowhere blindly running into the street and almost into the bus going South. I sure wish I stayed to hear what the bus driver said to you.
