    Good idea. I may just go! haven’t done a trivia contest in for-ever! Though I’m not sure my bicycle knowledge is very good. Not compared to you all who are “senior members” on the forum!!

    With Bike to Work Week seemingly making every day a CCCC day what are the plans for folks for tomorrow and Thursday? Hit CC Water Park for squagels and coffee? Or hit Best Buns and Whole Foods first?

    Good to see you this morning. I asked, and I think folks are just planning to go to the CC Water park both days (not the other spots at all).

    :)

    I saw a herd of about 30 cops walking in loose formation along Lafayette Square this morning around 8:20. I just figured it was another day in Trumpland.

    On Ohio Drive, I passed mounted police from 50 states (maybe), horse trailers from 50 states, and navigated around horse poop from 50 states.

    The horses were cool!

    Ha thanks Bobco. I’m waiting for a bus in the rain and was just gonna follow up.
    It was really amazing that the bag was there 4 hrs later…untouched. Glad my friends encouraged me to go down there rather than wait.

    Also from now on…things you can’t lose stay attached in pockets etc. And always make sure the panniers’ straps are attached. I maybe I forgot to do that.

    I rode near the volleyball courts by the Memorial Bridge (the Ken Center side) and took out some gloves so had the panniers there. Then i rode to Linc Memorial and around, Ohio Drive and 14th st. bridge. Mt Vernon trail to 4 mile run then to Giant near Pot Yards. There i discovered panniers gone.

    Wallet in them.

    Any ideas? Cancel cards, etc.
    Call Natl Park Service.

    It would be cool if a cyclist found it/them

    :(

    This can probably be arranged.

    What would you take as bribes to organize such a ride on BTW Day? If you don’t, maybe I will. How about morning – tour de pitstops? after that – kayak somewhere on the Potomac and lunch (I can figure out this part)…. Afternoon ..more pitstops?:cool:

    Yesterday on the curves on the MVT near the airport, I nearly hit a cyclist head on – i was going on my merry commuting way, and came around a curve to see a guy in the middle of the path, with headphones on, weaving left and right like he was dancing, ON HIS BIKE. I almost hit him, weaved around, and screamed. There was one guy – seemed to be a regular cyclist riding normally- behind him. It really shook me.

    did anyone else see this guy?
