July 4th Ride

[Velobambina]

Velobambina,

Just curious how far you are or where you work is from the NIH. One of my teammates just moved down to Bethesda and woks at NIH and she may be looking for some women to ride with down there. Do you ride with a group?

Right now, I'm working in Tysons. Can't bike commute there due to no safe way from the W&OD. Ostensibly, I could meet the ladies at NIH, but it would have to be after work. I get off at 3:00, and once I'm stuck with the horrible commute to Dulles, I will be lucky to be home by 3:30, feed the girls, and hightail it out for a bike ride by 4:00.

I'll tell my husband about the Balto ride. I love Baltimore---reminds me a lot of Pittsburgh, my hometown.

Are you doing the Civil War ride? We were thinking about it, but then my best girl died unexpectedly (my sweet golden, Agnes). I haven't wanted to commit to putting in long miles (50+).
