ParticipantReally? I will obey this sign when I see one that tells the drivers on Mt. Vernon Avenue to get out and push their cars over the bridge.

ParticipantThat purple looks really close to the color of my Bridgestone XO-1. A good match is Testors Boyd 52704 “Grape Pearl”.

I don’t think that’s a bike lane either, but I still take it as a challenge to see if I can keep my wheels between the lines as I go around the curve.

Some should put little bike lane stencils between the two lines.

ParticipantPhotos (or the next Coffee Club) or it doesn’t exist.

They also need to widen the northbound bike lane north of 15th and around the bend onto 12th. It’s like only a foot wide!
I don’t think that is a bike lane. At least it is not marked as such.

ParticipantAnd with the Tour de France Stage 20 shortened to just 59km, there is no reason to stay at home and watch what will be a boring bike race. See you there FFG.

Wow! Have your asked any of the public libraries if they would be interested in having them and making them available to customers?
Thanks. Good idea. Also Duncan Library may want them for their book sale.

I, too, once upon a time, went to Metro HQ, took the test, paid my fifteen bucks and obtained myself a bike-on-rail permit, thank you very much. I, however, threw mine away long ago.
Got mine at Bike to Work Day in Freedom Plaza, which may explain the squinty-eyed photo taken in the bright daylight.

Spotted this e-modded Long Haul Trucker outside the Library of Congress today.

I can see that rear wheel with the motor disappearing real fast. Maybe the frame pump as well.

ParticipantDigging through my files I found this October 1991 edition of “Metro News” which outlined the restrictions of taking a bike on Metrorail. We’ve come a long way.
I also found my Bicycle Permit that expired 5/16/98 which I will not post. And I thought drivers license photos were terrible.

Could be a defect or, given the life of the worn tire, it could be some of the threads (around which the rubber is moulded) on the inside giving way allowing that bit of the rubber to expand.

So is this something that can happen with tubeless tires? I’ve never seen anything like that on old-timey clinchers with tubes. I’ve had a sidewall blow out, but that becomes a flat really fast.
