While on the bike path yesterday, I stopped alongside to practice panning with the camera, and I caught this commuter. W jokingly said that I should post this and tell everyone that it’s me. Hey! What’s that supposed to mean!? Actually, there’d be no mistaking the two of us…’cause my bike’s red…and hers is blue. There. Anyway, in the words of Judy Tenuta, “It could happen!” Yeah, I could look like this…someday, but maybe I never will. And that’s fine, ’cause my attitude toward biking is that—like the Chinese proverb says—the journey is the reward.

Today’s ride may be on the Custis Trail that branches off of the W&OD, which we were on yesterday. It’s the route I took when I worked in DC…five years ago…and haven’t ridden since. It has three huge hills. And I’m lousy on hills. So, be prepared for more pics from alongside the path.
