So when are these venture capitalist geniuses going to debut rideshare lawnmowers on the national mall? Navigating between them is going to be thrilling.

Oh wow another Edo bucket enthusiast! Here is a documentary from 1860s Japan of a fellow Edo-bucket-head:

I have been thinking about doing this for, like, two years–every single time I ride there.

It would be more in keeping with Crystal City’s previous infra design choices to make it a bus only lane.

So did they end up building this so that the bikers will be a squishy barrier between the highway traffic and the soundwalls?
If that’s the case:

I’ve been given advice to loosen my shoes a bit after a few hours in the saddle because blood begins to pool in your feet and they swell which may cause them to rub and bruise in places that are usually fine. It’s not something I naturally think to do and usually by the time I notice something is going wrong it’s a bit too late anyways. The sweet spot may be socks with a bit of cushion like you guys are saying and actually not over tightening the straps.

Bike to event t shirts are unnecessary garbage made by massively polluting factories taking advantage of slave labor in third world countries – be glad you don’t have one – and let’s not even speak of the water bottles. The more we as a culture reject this kind of stuff the better.

You really think I cant control a dog on a leash longer than 6 feet? Really? :rolleyes:

The rant in this post can be made about absolutely every tribe that uses the WOD. Cyclists. Joggers (oooh I hate them). People with baby strollers. Dog walkers. People with horses. People who use those stupid jogging machines on wheels. Krakens.

Putting up signs will do nothing. Being pissed does nothing except get you pissed.

This is the WOD, the international highway of posers. There is only one thing you can change: yourself. Idiots are going to be idiots. All you can do is slow way down around them – or bike somewhere else (I tend to do both).

Somebody laminate this post and put it on signs at a buncha places.

Alright, looks like I won’t need the sleeping bag

[LeprosyStudyGroup]

Then I will see exactly how many pounds of cheetos I can pack into my backpack inside of/around a sleeping bag

I am interested in doing this with ya, but I’m not 100% sure I can make it yet (and I have zilch for camping gear)

[LeprosyStudyGroup]

I had a lot of fun with this. No way anybody will convince me to strap and dangle 80 lbs of water and wood chips to my body and haul it up outta four mile run again, but I’d do it again in a non competitive fashion.

My experience was the same as AFHokie – I’d recommend doing WABA’s pleasant and beautiful Cider Ride in the fall instead… and if you feel like suffering from conditions and circumstances rather than the people around you, the 50 states ride.

theres a vending machine at my work that serves the same breakfast sandwiches as nector and it only charges $1.50 for them
this is not a joke

I think after like 5 years I’m finally going to join the grand tradition of taking bike to work day off – so to celebrate a rare reprieve from biking to work I’ll help you at the tent:confused:

Rod, do it :thumbs:
