One of those people will be my wife. I'll be escorting her up to Suitland for the first time. She is plenty nervous and hoping there's a teeny bit of fun and awesomeness. We will see.

This is pretty cool, but I'll have to try it out on routes different than my commute. I'm not a real fan of the color grading because it considers the steepest parts of Good Hope Rd and Mass Ave SE,...
Suitland Rd westbound. Near the bottom of the hill in the cemetery.
You in one of those stupid Dodge Magnums. Decided to pull out making a left turn without looking left. Maybe your dreads got in...
Nice color.
What're y'all watchin' on the TV?
Great list! My office has secure underground parking, a shower, though it's gross and I prefer to just use a towel of my own.... the only thing I would ask is that we move our facility from the...
I also got started in the cycling lifestyle with a Fuji Cross Pro actually. I got mine in 2005. I used it for commuting, touring, and weekend rides. Only ever did 1 cyclocross race and it became a...
Weather was beautiful and on my travels today I came across more organized events than I've ever seen before.
On the W&OD there was:
Paul's Ride for Life - 10/20/50 miles
Leesburg 5K run
In...
That is an insane ride.
That's great! Except I need to get on the road at 6:30 to get to work on time. 7-9 only works for people riding TO Crystal City, not from it.
Did you at least get the KOM for the mail checking segment?
I don't have the body to compete for strava top 10s climbing. So just because idiots do stupid things you think all downhill...
I think this article will break records in the fact that it may be the first ever essay about cycling posted on a news outlet that is NOT dominated by anti-cyclist, hateful comments. It's only been...
Great article! My wife, as a cancer survivor will very much appreciate it as well.
Semi-related - I JUST finally put it together that eminva = Elizabeth MacGregor that lady I interact with on...
I was hoping you were right! Now I feel dumb for thinking they were acknowledging me. Oh well... at least they were fairly nice in passing me and I did get a couple of peace signs. Ultimately getting...
Yeah, but I clearly remember that the thumb was not extended and the pointer finger was. Finally found some good results on google.

I've never had the best relationships with motorcycles on the road. Usually the best I could ask is for them to move over as they passed me while not revving their super loud engines.
Today, a...
You may want to wear some football pads and get a stronger helmet AND don't forget your ruby slippers just in case you end up in OZ because.....
TORNADO WATCH for the entire local area and from...
So 40 days AND 40 nights? Does that make this repaving project one of biblical proportions?
It's that time again. DC is on the northern edge of a slight risk for severe this afternoon/evening. The bulk of it will hopefully come through well after the evening rush, but it's definitely...
Oh yeah! I saw that one time too. That is crazy! It's like the person was riding on E. Basin Dr and forgot to take the MUP up to the bridge and just kept going for some reason.
Who the hell, as...
With CaBi expanding in MoCo, I wonder how long it will be before someone is spotted pedaling a CaBi on the beltway, Connecticut Ave*, or E-W highway*.
*I've ridden on parts of these roads before,...
I swear this thread already exists, but I couldn't find it.
While CaBi is a great way to get around the city, sometimes its users are a bit clueless about getting from point A to B. But instead of...
If anything on this forum qualifies as ELITE, I'd say it's a great result like this.
Oh I use a headband all summer long. It's just that when it gets saturated it too will drip. Normally I can wait to wring it out at a natural stopping point, but not when it's laced with sunscreen....
I have a similar looking but much smaller patch on my knee that is bright red. I put sunscreen on my calves, arms, neck and face but missed my knees. I also made the spring mistake of putting it on...
I honestly haven't done any other styles of yoga, but I've heard about hot yoga, but that just seems like a gimmick to me. Ashtanga is pretty fast moving where you only stay in one pose for 5 breaths...
