Please submit a report. 311 has been responsive when I've done it, and I think they have specialized smaller street sweepers for the bike lanes.

Bump!
Thank you for setting this up again.
Thanks for the update! Please excuse my ignorance of that part of the city, but for folks who don't otherwise have business there, does it make any recreational rides easier? (E.g., looking at the...
ElevationLab, which makes accessories for Apple Products, has announced a nondescript way to attach an AirTag to your bicycle using the bottle cage mounts. $20. Use code BIKE to get 20% off. I have a...
Great to know there are plans to signalize it and install barriers. It is pretty dodgy at the moment.
It's a very useful PBL. But, the section from Rock Creek Parkway to the Watergate has no flexposts. Totally fine going uphill (toward Foggy Bottom) but the two times I've taken it the other way...
MoCo portion of the CCT is in good shape. Not sure about the DC portion.
DC downtown bike lanes seem highly variable but overall not in great shape -- passable with caution?
I could potentially fit into this, depending on the week. Count me in!
My risk tolerance is fairly high but I would have skipped this one.
It’s nice to rotate through the options. I now have a fun collection of BAFS things. I will say the one that is most recognizable and gets the most comments is the green tag that hangs from my saddle.
Do you plan to build this yourself?
Please post a spec list and any lessons learned when you're done. I didn't know there were off-the-shelf frames with split chainstays. Looks like there's a lot...
I think the Friendship Heights Whole Foods carries kitten-like meat.
By May 2022, the Metro extension to IAD should (!) be open. You’ll be able to easily get most anywhere in the city from the airport. If your budget allows, you could consider staying somewhere...
I saw this PoPville post that describes a lady being screamed at on the CCT near the Key Bridge.
Just want to note for the record that I had something very similar happen to me about the same...
Hope to see a few forum folks at the GRUSK this coming weekend. Bought a pair of WTB Resolutes (700C x 42) for the ride. I had to switch my registration to the Tall (1-day) but am excited to ride the...
All good points, though my read of the liability coverage from rental car companies is that it covers these scenarios -- e.g., the coverage from Hertz is $1 million, and includes under-insured...
My recollection when I ran the numbers was that I'd need to rent a lot to make it worthwhile. I've settled on Allianz for collision coverage by the day (in theory, collision should be covered by my...
I don't think so and I hadn't realized DCA was an exclusion zone. The bike's battery died toward the end of the trip, though, so it's possible that CaBi was forgiving about the docking location.
I've biked to/from DCA maybe 3 times for personal travel: once I locked up my beater bike at the racks for a 3-4 days without issue, once (prior to the new CaBi station) I used the dockless option on...
Thanks for sharing.
In addition to opening Beach Dr to recreational use, the current restrictions also make it much more pleasant to use the many nearby trails and picnic areas.
Thanks for the updates. Admittedly I'm not a regular, but I've never had issues at HP and have always felt safe cycling there. Very bothersome to read about the deaths.
We should make a slick bike propaganda video to publicize the station.
I had to travel for family reasons a few weeks back. It took me 25 minutes on an e-CaBi to reach the airport from Mt....
Ugh, so sad to see Scott Simon -- of all people -- tweeting against cyclists!
I think it's totally doable. You'll obviously wash your hands well during preparation. Individually-wrapped items would be ideal (e.g., in some foil, plastic wrap, or more eco-friendly equivalent). I...
There's a small chance I'll escape town for the weekend but definitely won't miss it if I'm around.
