Strange that DC has so few participate in CM. I saw so many cyclists when I was there over the summer. Many had no regard for traffic rules. I guess its all of the municipal and federal police and professional non-commited bikers.
Pittsburgh had between 160-200. No police this time, last month there was a police escort who provided "corking" duties and arrested no one. Next month should be fun, I am sure there'll be an impromptu masquerade.
