Too bad. I did that last year for the first time with the hurricane and all. I was hoping to do it again this year in more dry conditions...but it does not look like it.

I'm not so sure why secruity would be a problem. Its not like we rode laps around the White House or anything. We were on public roads the whole time and did not go near the mall or anyother "important" public biuldings for that matter. Now if I were a terrorist I think I could get more explosives in the trunk of my can than I could in a fanny pack.

Come to think of it I think the closest I came to the White House or Capitol was where I parked my car. Come to think of it, if I recall it was on a Sunday...there are only tourist in Washington on a Sunday. Seems something else is going on here. Maybe some sponsors pulled out. I remember there being a lot of sponsors Giant (that cool pace car), some pizza company (free pizza at end of ride), etc.
