    Lightbulb DC Area VSalon 4th of July Hoo ha

    All you have to do is say "In" .
    Meet up location in DC will be announced on the day of 4th July.
    What you need to know is:
    a. Meet in DC at 7:30pm rain or shine OR Meet in MD and ride to the ride with the peloton (yuck yuck) at 7:00pm)
    b. BYO blanket to sit on
    c. Watch this thread for an exact location(s) to meet on the morning of July 4th.
    d. Double Bonus points for arriving with cold beers to share.

    Peace, TT

    I would LOVE to actually make this, having missed other DC area gatherings. I will stay tuned, and hope that (inevitable family obligations notwithstanding on a holiday weekend) I can be there.

    In the immortal words of John Lee Hooker "Last Call For Alcohol". The 4th is not on a school night ;)

    PM me for a very detailed map of the meetup location in DC or MD.

    I said "in" sotto voce.

    It's probably a lie. Depends on organizing the kids and whether the 8 y.o. twins are up for riding through crowds, and I'm tempted but strongly suspect that we need another year. I cannot leave them because it's the 4th, and I love them, and they have all the beer.

    2011 and time to wake bring this thread back from the dead.

    Same deal. Read here for clues.

    I predict one heck of an amazing show.

    As a local, may I suggest the grassy lawn directly across the (17th) street from the Organization of American States bldg? Lots of space to stretch out and kids can run around safely, edge of the crowd (easy on/off Metro at Farragut West) and great view. it's been our favorite place for years. Across the street from 200 17th St NW (between E St and Constitution)

    Fireworks Watching - Google Maps

    Just a suggestion, don't know what TT has in mind-
