Koffee,
I'm sure you were well versed in the policy. My post was for the benefit of the many other forum readers (like myself) who weren't familiar with it. Specifically, the requirement to bag a folding bike is strange to me as in Dallas, this is not required, but is in both DC and Boston (and maybe other cities). This requirement might be easily overlooked by a visitor to DC who takes a folder only to be denied access becuase of the lack of a bag.
