Step five in my seven step plan for world domination is this blog and today it turned three years old. It's funny because the pie-in-the-sky thing I talked about in the first post (FlexBike coming to DC) has happened. Other early posts have not fared as well. But still, the next year promises to give us the Wilson Bridge bikeway, SmartBike expansion, the Bike Station @ Union Station, the next section of the Met Branch Trail and surely some other improvements I can't even think of. Ridership and readership are up and I'm looking forward to another good year of riding.
Numbers:
As of last year: 997 posts, 1881 comments, 158748 total page views. (roughly 600 hits a day)
As of this year: 1889 posts, 3865 comments, 444558 total page views (roughly 1200 hits a day)



Congratulations! I'm a 'this year' convert and check your blog every day. A must-read resource for DC-area bike commuters.

Congrats!
When you've finished with that plan, please don't pass mandatory helmet laws! ;)

I'm a long time fan. IMHO The Wash Cycle is the best cycling blog in the Metro area. Good luck in your quest for world domination.

You realize that 550 of those daily hits are me, right? ;)
Congrats on the anniversary. You've come a long way.
