Lost my #bike trailer flag today transporting a Food Rescue. Little orange triangle wasn't very exciting. Any recommendations for what to replace it with? #BikeDC #BikeTooter

If you happen to need a bike axle (I needed one to attach a trailer), I recommend Robert Axle Project - responsive to a question, fast shipping, I'm really happy with the quality, no excessive packaging, designed/made in USA. #bike #bikeDC

Quick! Tell DDOT that the NY York Ave Trail needs to, you know, connect to things?

Heading home. So proud of us. At 4:30 pm—1h before event start—our tool hauler called: no power @ the storage space, can’t get tools, bike, & trailer. She drove to 2 board members’ houses to borrow tools & we got the word out to our leader corps to bring whatever they had. And we did it! We got 20 #volunteers w < 24h notice. Can’t wait to share the before/after pics w y’all.

Good morning! Posting this again ICYMI. We could definitely use some extra hands this evening 5:30-7:30 to clean up #storm damage on the MVT south of TR Island near Rosslyn. Sign up below.
Also, if you happen to use the MVT near Rosslyn, let us know how NPS is doing with clearing the tree that fell on Bridge 31 on Saturday. Pictures would help!

@bikedc help! I’m new to the city and biking on streets. Is there a good guide on biking rules and guidelines in DC? Is there a group that makes it easy for newbies like me to get comfortable biking around the city? I’ve read the Pocket Guide to DC bike laws but I didn’t found it helpful when I’m on the street. #bikedc
@WABA first volunteer food rescue by 🚲 done! sweltering day for it ☀️

Great #bikeDC News: Notice of Intent is out for 11th St NW (Penn to L) bus lanes, includes protected bike lanes.
This corridor has been low hanging fruit for awhile (70’ wide for 11k cars a day!) but credit DDOT for including PBLs when they’re not in long-range plans, AND parallel corridor like 300’ away (9th) just got PBLs for same extent. https://arcg.is/1Hm8TK
#bikeDC Only two sleeps until the 3 Bridges Ride, a @WABA fundraiser. Join us! @bikedc

Dzhoy Zuckerman, a #bikedc'er, was shot and killed in DC last night.

Finally rode the Met Branch Trail extension, which I worked on back in 2014.
Pleased that the access gate to the concrete pit made it to final, because the workers wanted to be able to access the trail.
So if you ever doubt the widespread demand for access to great active transportation facilities… remind yourself that the concrete pit workers wanted and got an access point off of the Mer Branch Trail.
