[quote=Anonymous]I used to commute from the Georgetown end of the Cap Crescent to Bethesda by bike. It was GREAT fun and I still miss it. If I remember correctly, I allotted 30 min for the ride, including getting from the Bethesda end of the Crescent trail to the office. It's a slight uphill most of the way. A couple of tips: leave some basics in your office (extra underwear, a pair of neutral shoes, a neutral shirt/blouse). You will appreciate it when you forget something. You'll need a cleanup kit of washcloth, small towel, deodorant, extras of any makeup you use, and a ziplock bag to carry home any wet stuff. Invest in good rain gear, reflective strips, and lights. Learn how to patch a tire quickly and carry a small gear kit and pump with you. The PP on the different muscle groups is correct. Even if you're in good shape from running, your quads and possibly your lower back might be sore the first couple of days. Enjoy! You'll save time, money, and have a blast.[/quote]
