TheWashCycle: Saturday Morning Ride

Good morning

Unsupringly, Capital Bikeshare may close if Hurrican Irene related weather creates conditions on the ground warrant it.
Surpringly, my work sent out an email announcing that all bikes have to be moved in because of the storm. And that any bikes left locked to bike racks outside will have the lock cut and be brought inside. Bikes are normally not allowed inside. This email was sent 2 hours before lock cutting was to begin. Lock cutting began at 4:30 when many people might still be at work.
Also, the Oxon Run Ride has been cancelled.
The MBT is having a day of service on 9/10.
