We had 3 easy legs of about 80 or so miles each today, the last 20 miles of the 3rd leg brought us into Arlington, VA where all the traffic in the world is stuffed into 2, 3 or 4 lanes, everyone in the wrong lane it seems, and everyone has an agenda, and probably written proof that their cause is most important than the people in the next vehicle..
We weaseled our way through all the traffic, kept our wits, and arrived about 9 minutes later than scheduled with hundreds of bikes and riders, in spite of the tough challenges of road work, rush hour and missing escort.
Breaking the pack into platoons helps keep each small group on track, we planned to arrive as platoons, but ended up arriving as one big pack as if we were escorted.
