Metro announced that there'll be no bikes allowed in the Metro train system for the entire four days that weekend, January 17 - 20. They must be expecting extremely heavy ridership all weekend, usually they only prohibit bikes on the 4th of July!

There might be a million people with a great story about how they witnessed live the inauguration of Barack Obama, and one and a half million people with a horror story about how they travelled all the way to DC and missed the inauguration sitting in a car/tour bus/broken Metro train/cager.
