I live at the intersection of 4MR and Walter Reed so I routinely drive, walk, take the bus, and cycle through that intersection. It sucks for everyone. As a non-driver, I regularly avoid crossing...

I live on that corner. At a minimum, there needs to be a curb bump out to slow the drivers down when making a right hand turn. It's a dangerous intersection and I'm furious that left hand turn...

Hi, my BF just received the Wolvhammer from 45thNorth from REI but they were too small in a 48 (toes hit end) so now he is thinking he should be looking at 49s in order to ensure he can fit winter...

I've been to one of Bruce Deming's seminars and it was excellent. So is his book. He has helped a co-worker of mine recover damages when he was hit (broken bones involved).

One of the take aways...

Everyone who lives here knows the challenges...

Anybody have first hand knowledge if Ft Myer guards are checking for bike passes nowadays? Just checked their website and was directed to this horribly designed link that says only 1 year or 60 day...

This month the Library of Congress is featuring photos of old. You can see them by going to https://loc.gov and scrolling to the bottom of the page.

Me +1 will be there around 6:00. Thanks so much for organizing!

Whoa. I would call that a serious crash in my book. Hopefully all heals up quickly and well and that you don't need any serious dental work. I don't know that area so can't offer any advice. ...

And what pray tell is going thru the peds' minds when they are walking along the side of the PBL when there is a perfectly good sidewalk right there?! "Gee, I should be careful and walk along the...

Here’s a good 7 minute FHWA safety improvement video on the Lummi Nation Haxton Way Project where in Washington they installed separated bike/ped paths with automatic brightness solar lighting on a...

Cut and paste from another forum:

This Satuday, Nov. 4, DDOT representatives are holding a public meeting on what is officially known as the I Street SE Pedestrian and Bicycle Safety Improvements...

Thanks for posting this. I've never noticed the ground level barrier even though I've ridden past a million times. I could easily see myself passing through the gate if it were open. Hopefully...

I've seen the orange and green bikes in Pentagon City and a couple of orange bikes in Shirlington which I presume is outside of the approved zone. If they circulate a lot I think they are a good...

This is what Bruce Deming always advocates. Unfortunately the police may or may not (usually the latter) not ticket the driver.

FYI: unit for rent in my complex. We are located right on the W&OD! 15 minute shuttle ride to Pentagon City metro if you don't want to ride. Cabi station also located next to property. Walkable...

Interesting article in the NYTimes about Utrecht's biking infrastructure expansion.

Damn, sorry I missed the send-off. Am still in contractor/home moving madness. Best wishes on your new adventures. The area is amazing out there and I'm sure you will enjoy it. Especially the...

Sorry for the late posting. Just saw this in my work inbox and it was posted 7/24:

I am happy to announce a new organization of bicyclists and bike commuters who use the Mount Vernon Trail south...

I've often wondered why the MVT isn't swarming with bats since they could have their easy fill of food. I'm all for installing bat boxes along the trail to cut down on the bug population.

I know who you are talking about (he did my fitting). No reason to tip. He basically works as an independent contractor and sets his own rates. He is always busy (does great fittings too).

Wow, ouch. The MVT scores another victim. Another reminder to everyone to be extra vigilant when the conditions are out of the ordinary.

I would highly advise seeking another doctor's opinion;...

Yes, lots of thefts at the Ballston metro bike racks. Amazing given the ped traffic around there. Also, there has been an on-going problem of bike thefts in general along the Rosslyn-Ballston...

I think it most likely occurred when I unintentionally went on a mountain biking excursion on my road bike and had to bushwhack my way out, uphill, to find civilization. Was a funny experience...
