I'm sure rent was a factor, but a bigger factor for the hardware store side was parking. Most of the parking barons in downtown DC charge $21 a day for garage parking, but the Wharf garage charges up...

That north turning to west side of the trail over Washington Blvd. is something I *rarely* ride- I don't feel safe doing do. From the driver's view on Rt. 50, I will tell you why (this is where my...

This is sad. What we'll miss:

To verify that this *was* a Coffeeneuring journey: 20513

Today's Coffeeneuring trip was a mission to ride and document the freshly finished south side of Memorial Bridge. The wait was worth it in that we get the safer south side trail connections back.

Ah, the wisdom of a crosswalk at a freeway on-ramp...

If it is DIY, it is very well done. It was on two corners of this intersection. I had not noticed this anywhere else downtown, but then I wasn't looking. DC peeps, what say you?

A crosswalk at 13th & L St NW, DC. No, no e-scooters nearby to challenge/ignore this.20443

Yeah, a pain in the butt for that weekend, but it means this much-needed project is halfway home. As a bonus, I believe we will get a safer bike/ped connection- most of us took the south side of the...

Better than I hoped!

That surface was concrete to begin with- which shows the sheer power of floodwater that tore though there. A yellow boundary line? Thank you. Rip-rap to protect the concrete?...

I wore my PAL Ambassador reflective vest today, marshaling for Notorious ARL. Stopped into Arlington Mill, and darned if that didn't happen to me!

Judd: You have me as a Ride Marshal.

It has been years since *anyone* has been able to do these shots at the base of the Washington Monument. It finally reopened this past week. So we did...

FDR, Dr. King, and I'll let Larry Behery (The Old Bike Shop) explain what was going on at the DC World War I Memorial.

Presidents Jefferson and FDR.

Hi! My original intent was to roll from Papillon at 7:15, but I have guests who will arrive a few minutes after that. So, likely to roll 7:30-ish, which would put me at the south side of LBJ closer...

Good morning. Papillon's Monuments at Night Redux is this evening. The weather forecast- Clear. Sunset at 7:07pm, temperatures around 81 going down to 74 by 11. Can't ask for better (except maybe the...

Maybe this sign might both increase awareness and possibly encourage enforcement

As a start (*something* is far better than nothing), what must we...

Or, the Guerilla Signage route (like we used to do in the PAL Ambassador days):

A reminder- if you wish to cruise around and see lots of illuminated marble in DC tomorrow evening, there's a ride with your name on it: ...

OK. What do we do next? Apart from Guerilla Signage?

It is now 2019. And it's time. Papillon's Monuments at Night Ride returns Saturday evening, August 24. Details to follow, soon. 20304

The vintage WMAL jingle, our soundtrack, remains:...

Maybe that is because the NuVinci's shifter progresses in the *opposite* direction as a Shimano derailleur or hub setup. A different sort of muscle memory that constantly found me shifting in the...
