Truck pulled in to "protected" cycletrack outside Swings. MPD officer biked past and had to salmon the main travel lane but didn't even glance at the truck. This is why we can't have nice things #bikeDC

Guess I’m not biking this way today. The bike trail under the railroad at Lake Artemesia is completely flooded. #bikedc
Bike to every station on the DC Metro Orange Line in my latest bike transit video! I last did a video of this 11 years ago (this one’s much better)

Fuck this bird #bikeDC
Thanks so much to the driver of DC tag JD 2111 for punish passing me at 14th and Nicholson NW for DARING to take the lane for that stretch where they reserve subsidized parking for rich people at the expense of the bike lane #bikeDC
Biking to get to my appointments in DC and... Holy hell do I hate riding through Georgetown 🤬
I guess one might call that "repaired" #bikeDC
Let's try this again... Made a timelapse of my bike ride into work through DC (Prince George's County, Maryland -> DC -> Arlington County, Virginia).
16 miles.
Mostly trails and bike paths.
Through the monuments and National Mall.
Scenes from my bike commutes in May. Trading a car commute for a Brompton has been the best decision for my mental health #bikedc
I had a wonderful ride with @swiderski, @bryan_s_hart and other members of the #bikedc community at tonight's #RideOfSilence. It sucks that we have to come together under these circumstances, but it warms my heart to have a community such as ours to pay respects alongside.
The #RideOfSilence is coming up tomorrow!
We're aware storms are forecast for #BikeDC tomorrow, especially in the morning, and we're keeping an eye on things. _At this time_ we are planning to go forward as scheduled, but stay tuned for potential updates.

Bike to Work Day was a success. It was a beautiful afternoon on my return!
I experimented with using my phone to do a timelapse of the return trip. Ended up not having the mount angled right for half the trip and it's way too fast, but if you're curious:

@APBBlue Just rename it to “Bike-to-Anywhere-Day” and carry on. #BTWD2025 #BikeDC #BikeTooter
First rain bike commute today. Need to figure out how to keep rain off my glasses and remember to pack a dry set of shoes, but otherwise its okay.
That was a wet ride. #BikeDC
I'm organizing a silly Taco Ride in DC this Saturday. It's a super casual, no-drop, self-supported ride that hits three of my favorite taquerias in the DC area. Each stop is near a metro, and there's a bonus ice cream stop at the end. I hope you all can come! #bikedc https://partiful.com/e/UwlERG8nJfnGVInhPqLo
Sold my trainer bike yesterday, since I no longer have space for a bike trainer setup (and the apartment building has a gym with stationary bikes). We are now back down to (counts on fingers) having 4 bikes in the apartment.
I'm on the fence about selling the gravel bike, but am emotionally attached to my road bike. Carl is keeping his ebike and the brompton is my commuter. So we'll have at least 3 for the foreseeable future.
Commuting on the brompton (to the green line) is fun and I'm enjoying it! #bikeDC #metro #commute
