I try to figure out some text but I suspect the photos will speak for themselves.

First stop Rosslyn.

Next stop Freedom Plaza-right smack dab in the middle of downtown DC.

Schwag time and people/bike watching!

Pretty wet looking! How were the temps?

Mid 60's maybe, not much wind. Didn't seem all that cold-sure was wet!

Then it was time to go to work, dry out and distribute the schwag.

I assume the turnout was a lot smaller than when it's not rainy. You got some pictures of some cool bikes.

I was looking at the pit stop hours and couldn't rearrange my schedule to get to work late, which would have allowed me to stop in Bethesda or Freedom Plaza. So I ended up not riding to work at all today instead of just riding at the normal time.

MB1: Are those red bikes with the rear covers the new DC Bikes Program that Fenty is supporting?

I believe so, I didn't stop and chat with them as the didn't seem to be giving anything away.

Hell of a nice turnout downtown. Although I bet that most of those people would have commuted whether it was BTW day or not. It would be nice to see a few more commuters out here in the burbs.
