Tomorrow is Bike to Work Day. It’s always interesting to ride to work with convoys and stop for freebies at a pit stop. I need to add to my t-shirt collection too. I’ve been posting pix of my BTWD shirts all week. I have many more: two kelly greens, one each dirty green, red and blue. I think my red one is in Thailand. Don’t ask.
Anyway, I am planning on riding to the Old Town Pit Stop for a t-shirt and other goodies. Then on to work. I will probably bypass the Rosslyn stop altogether even though it’s two blocks from work. I may even take an alternate route to work to avoid the work zone congestion at the pit stop which is located ironically at the Intersection of Doom.
After work I will probably ride into the city to celebrate with WABA. Tomorrow is Nelle Pierson’s last day as WABA’s Deputy Director. This is huge because she is awesome.
This morning I gave a brief BTWD interview to a Mikaela Lefrak from WAMU, a local NPR station. I don’t know if she will use any of it but it was fun to do.
It’s about 90F degrees outside, the perfect July evening for a May ride home. Time to roll.
A Few Spokes Shy of a Wheel 
Is it wrong that as a currently unemployed, i.e. non working, person I want to bike to a stop on the local bike to work route to enjoy coffee and snacks and fellowship with my cycling peeps? There have been more than a few years where I was working and did not bike….
Not a problem. It’s the thought that counts
