Bike to every station on the @wmata Silver Line Extension in my video! All of the stations are now open, & while the Loudoun County, VA stations were tricky to access, I found a way. I included a link to my route in the video description.

6/6 Final Silver Line stations
-I found bike-friendly access to Dulles Airport Station (after surviving Old Ox Rd's 45 mph traffic gauntlet): cut thru Garage 1, use elevators
-Loudoun Gateway Station: parking garage, station, nothing more
-Ashburn station means I made it!

5/6 My Silver Line bike adventure headed into Phase 2 stations
-Herndon Station, upgraded from a bus park & ride
-seems so recent that there was barely anything here
-Innovation Center, surrounded by new housing & offices
-this is a paved sidepath, well, under all of the debris

2/6 My Silver Line adventure took me into Tysons
-Tysons station: in the middle of shiny skyscrapers popping up everywhere
-Greensboro station has some nice murals nearby, but it is sandwiched between like 1,000 lanes (slight hyperbole) of noisy & speeding traffic (truth)
