D.C. United Icon Ben Olsen To Retire
This Friday, May 15 is the annual national Bike to Work Day (not to be confused with D.C.'s local Car Free DC Day, which happens in September). The Washington Area Bicyclist Association is once again taking the lead in organizing this year's event locally, and they're asking those of you who plan to participate to pre-register before showing up at the relevant "pit stop" on Friday morning. Registration is free, and allows the organizers to make sure each "pit stop" has enough supplies on hand to handle the crowds. Each "pit stop" will offer free breakfast and entertainment, plus the chance to win bicycles and other prizes. Registration also makes you eligible to receive a free T-shirt (the first 7,000 registrants who show up to their pit stops will get the shirts).
WABA's also offering a discounted membership for Bike to Work Day participants. $25 gets you a one-year membership.

When is the Bike Convoy for the Unemployed?
Farragut Square Park, any day of the week...
Dude - I'm going to get so many points this Friday. 50 pts per elitist cyclist with a 100 pt triple hit combo!!!!
Great - a bunch of of fat, sweaty Lance wannabees congregating before they barrel down the CCT, knocking over old ladies as they go. After all, it is THEIR trail. Why should they bother to warn before passing or ride in one lane? 15 MPH speed limit? Pah! I'm biking to WORK!
Hope the cops are out in force...
I know exactly what you're referring to, but in general biycle commuters and the Lance wannabes are two different species.
Yeah, you're right. The bike commuters don't swear at you when you remind them that they're supposed to warn before passing. They can't hear you because they're listening to Keane..or NPR.
Both species are assholes.
ME-OW, kitty. Why don't you just keep a broomstick with you so you can shove it in their spokes when they ride by?
wow, comments on DCist and Ireport about the "evil" cyclists. You must really hate us...after all, we're the only people acting irresponsibly on the MUPs.
