Dear DC area CR list members,
This coming Tuesday will not be a good day to bring your Hetchins Road/Path bike down to Hains Point for a few cool laps. During the last inauguration (2nd Bush, 2005) I decided to do so and - while trying to avoid the road blocks - I had an "altercation" one of those Harbor Police chase boats. They actually sprint pretty well for a simple pontoon boat with a heavy machine gun mounted in the bow.
Cheers,
