Bike to work day (BTWD) here in the DC area and it is a beautiful morning! Coffee, cupcakes, cookies, fruit, etc. Got some nice bike lights too! I used to hate BTWD because I hated the crowds on the MUP but now I go early and embrace it. Like another rider said, I try to not let the newbies and other folks on the trail bother me. We are all just trying to have fun. I saw a few parents with their kids and they were giving them instruction on MUP and bike etiquette, which was nice to see.
