I didn't say it was illegal; just very unwise. And you certainly can't expect cars to be overjoyed about you when you're deliberately engaging in antisocial (albeit legal) behavior. [/quote]

Unwise compared to what?

and it is NOT antisocial, other than to people like you who try to avoid understanding why cyclists do what they do.[/quote]

you have the wrong person. I'm a biker and I've loved the times when I had a feasible bike commute.  I agree that biking on busy traffic arteries is legal in DC; but it's unwise, and it's anti-social to slow down traffic at rush hour.  And overall it's not good for the cause of getting more investment in and acceptance of bike infrastructure.  Just bike to Bethesda and metro in like the rest of us.  [/quote]

or Bike to Bethesda and take the perfectly good Capital Crescent Trail and then get off and use existing bike lanes in the core of DC instead of going on [b]Conn/Wis/Mass[/b] whatever[/quote]

AFAICT most people riding from MoCo to downtown DC do exactly that. The folks riding those state avenues live IN upper NW DC, and don't have good alternatives.  Or they work in Upper NW.   [/quote]

Which state avenues?  [/quote]

Er?[/quote]
