Isn't that actually the Jerome Park Reservoir? Not that I have been that close to it in over 50 years.

The lines were being painted today on the block south of the Freeway and north of G St, SW for the 4th St bike lanes.

Tomorrow [that's Thursday], work on the dual trails project in Falls Church will be moving to the section of trail between Spring St and Oak...
The W&OD is closed between Little Falls Church Street and Great Falls Church Street. https://twitter.com/WODTrail/status/1316483712838762496
Detour...
I hope that they remember to repave and paint from G St SW to the freeway when the construction on the east side is finished. Now the rest of 4th Street makes this block seem even more jarring than...
Did they also build an extension along Gallows? That seems more important than Sandburg. I can see from the tweet that they have made a bike lane along Iliff and put every bollard in northern VA to...
Another W&OD detour https://twitter.com/WODTrail/status/1310619472672284672
Starting on or around October 5th, Dominion Energy will begin performing major line work along the trail between...
I typically travel on the part of 4th Street north of M once a week. When I was there last Monday, I noticed that there were indeed several vehicles blocking parts of the lane. If they install more...
Agreed, but IMHO, it was worse south of Virginia Ave.
It's a bit hard to see, but it looks like one heading east on the W&OD is allowed to go to the Custis trail on either side of the circle.
There is also one at the other end in Purcellville which is easy not to notice.
Today, three of the four urinals were out of commission. (covered in plastic)
That makes the modesty panels which they installed quite superfluous. :p
There are 57 threads with Hains in the title, and none seemed appropriate. (Hains 57 Varieties?) This makes 58.
I think that it has been 4 years since the last time that Restroom #4 on HP was...
Agreed. If they want those who want to follow the rules but don't go there daily to go on the correct side, they will have to put up several signs.
This was published on 9/2, but I didn't notice it being mentioned elsewhere. I apologize if it has been....
This detour has been eliminated.
Riding from DC on the Custis and then heading west on the W&OD, there are now five detours within about two miles. :eek:
The remnants of Laura should be arriving from the west about that time.
Didn't he pass away at least 10 years ago?
Sometimes (actually often as I grow older) I don't want to peddle that hard and I sacrifice speed. An example was yesterday in the heat returning from a century on the W&OD to Clarks Gap and then to...
Didn't the original plan include a separate opening in the bridge for bikes so that the trail width would not need to narrow, or was that just someone's idea here?
Does anyone know what damaged the chain-link fence on the south side of the Goose Creek bridge on the W&OD? It is significantly out of shape.
I probably wasn't clear. Most of the warnings and a ticket have been for not coming to a complete stop at one of three stop signs. I think that I have only been stopped once for going around the...
I realized that. I was trying to follow the law because I have been stopped and given a warning or worse so often in the last 40 years by the NPS police. :)
Hains Point has been shut down again the last few days. I don't know why.
