    The Freezing Saddles site hasn’t been updated with this year’s hashtags yet. All of the prizes posted there are still from last year. The tech team has been advised to use the list at the top of this thread (which includes #BikeInfrastructure) when they update for this year.

    Thank you!

    We all love to learn about the cool stuff being built to make our cycling lives easier. From mechanical stands, to tire ramps up stairs, to all things more substantial let’s share where these gems are located! This can include items built by jurisdictions, business, or even private residents- but must be publicly accessible.

    Take a picture & document what it is, and where it’s located & post to this thread. Winner will be determined by the most unique entries.

    Ok- due to peer pressure, I am updating this pointless prize accordingly:

    – Snap a picture & document what & where the infrastructure is & post within this thread.

    – Post to Strava using the hashtag #BikeInfrastructure.

    One prize will be awarded to the person who identifies the MOST bike infrastructure.

    One prize will be awarded to the person who identifies the most unique & awesome bike infrastructure (as identified by the judge [emoji4]).

    I know this won’t win for novelty, but here’s the newly opened Cedar Lane bridge over I-66 in Vienna, complete with a lovely and wide multi-use path! A great reopened connection between Merrifield and Vienna!

    Ooh! I haven’t been out there yet! Will have to take a trip!

    As a defending Sock Champion, I am limiting myself, following the QOS’s edict #5 above, to not only weekly submissions, but also socks [emoji3453] that I didn’t post in last year’s #BAFS2020 #sockgame competition, in the spirit of fairness for less worthy contenders. Stay tuned for next week’s newer, brighter n’ funner submission!;-)

    The new protected bike lanes (in 2020) coming into Crystal City on Potomac Ave.
    That and the silky smooth new pavement make this a nice bike route. Just watch out for broken glass, which I’ve seen a couple times last few months. Plus joggers who like the lane :)

    Yes!!! This is a beauty! [emoji7]

    You really want to submit this early in the week? What happens if you come across some bright & fun pair of sock you had forgotten about in the back of your sock drawer come Thursday???

    Falls Church City bike racks in the shape of bikes.
    Not sure how practical they are, but they look nice and can be found throughout the town.
