It's usually ok on the W&OD trail
going over 495 <grin>
but I chose motored option,
got off when things slowed at
i66 and went to Nutley,
then Marshall, then somehow
to Cedar to Tysons...
(a modified bicycle route
in reverse)

BTW Marsha McAllister will
fill your email box with alerts
to stuff, but as noted at the
meeting, most don't bother checking
as busy trying to get someplace
or in vehicle and not texting/
browsing save... Wonder
what WebinOS has in for
to fix that little prob?
