Yes getting to the plowed TR Bridge may involve some walking.

3/14/17 Scenes of the MVT Part 1
Except for Trollheim, not too bad. (Edited to add: "Not too bad" is relative. Driving a Pugsley with studded tires creates a unique viewpoint)

3/14/17 Scenes of the MVT Part 2
The southern National Airport bridge has a good size sheet of solid smooth ice. The rider in front of me ended up sideways, but made a good catch.

I would've guessed "sparkly" but maybe that's more than PG-13.

Thanks!
I vote YES!
But i don't ride out there so probably don't pay attention to me.

Trio of Incredibleness) or schlep the Wash Blvd. trail to Boundary Channel.
Suggestions, anyone?
"Trio of incredibleness" made me laugh out loud. Their efforts sure are incredible!

It's still pretty much ice packed.

Thanks for that info. Roosevelt Bridge is indeed passable, will have to let D.C. know it's appreciated. There are a few spots where I66 plows must have pushed some touch ups onto the walk.
And on my approach even the TR Island project Mulchweg was rideable!

Spout Run ice rink had almost completely sublimated by yesterday afternoon. As of this morning, just one, easy-to-avoid patch.
Of course, it will melt some today and refreeze tonight.
