Yesterday I talked to a guy who commutes to work on a bike, and he told me that Bike DC no longer happens. This is the first full summer I am back in DC and I am so sad to hear that Bike DC does not happen anymore. Is there any chance this can come back? Does anybody miss it too?
Bike DC is a day when some streets are shut down and you can bike a route around the city. It is great. I did it back in 2002 and I loved it.
Well it could be a myth that it is no longer around b/c Bike DC does have a website and they have an October 17, 2009 date up, but where are the details? I hope that I can make it. That would be lots of fun.
If not Bike DC, what about bike the new fast lane coming in on the Beltway? Wouldn’t that be a crazy race? Biking on the fast lane could be better than sending cars through it. It is probably faster at certain times than cars. That would be cool to have it only bikes during rush hour.
