I heard on the news today that as usual there will be Metro delays due to track work this weekend. Including the Red line around Friendship Heights.
So y'all should check the Metro website for details and allow extra time for the delays.
Enjoy the race!

That's what's hilarious about Metro's timetables. They have them, but rarely keep to them. Good thing we're meeting at 10am.
Thanks for the head's up, NY."How about if we all just try to follow these very simple rules of the road? Drive like the person ahead on the bike is your son/daughter. Ride like the cars are ambulances carrying your loved ones to the emergency room. This should cover everything, unless you are a complete sociopath."

Unfortunately, I didn't go. I had a situation on Saturday left me under the weather, so I stayed home most of the weekend. Next year...

oh man, it was terrible looking. I was directing at the start of the hill just a block up from where the fall/ crash/ pile up occurred. real sad. I wanted to run down there and help out but they had ample, more qualified people down there. I thought it was pretty great to watch. I love the hum of all those wheels sprinting together.
I hope it becomes an annual event.Thanks TE! You pushed me half way over!

C'mon, ladies, I need to live vicariously through you. What was the course like? Who won? Did you see Vande Velde or any other of the big names? And, so I'll know for next year, were there good booths/vendors set up around the start area?
