Memorial Day ride!!

Zencentury, you don't need a pass for your bike to take it on Metro any more. You can be on any car at the front or back doors (not the middle door), except at rush hour--no bikes on metro at rush hour.

Cool beans!
Except that with the Metro system it always seems to be rush hour

I worked in DC for 15 years, went to The Wall once, I don't know if I could stand to do it again.

I worked in DC for 15 years, went to The Wall once, I don't know if I could stand to do it again.

My brother's name is on the wall - it's very tough to visit, believe me.

On a happier note: SO and I went out for 50 hilly miles yesterday. Sunny, hot (about 90F) and VERY humid. I used as much water on my head as I drank! Fortunately our route took us by country stores where we could refill the bottles as needed. Great ride. SO rescued a turtle from the road as well, and just in the nick of time - a huge truck came along just after he got him to safety.
