What are you doing the next few days? If you are going bicycling in Washington, D.C., you MUST go to Hains Point and check out the cherry blossoms. I shouldn’t even tell you this because I like keeping the population on Hains Point a level below utter chaos, but the perky pink blossoms look so beautiful that I have to encourage you all to go ride among them. You will love it.

The blossoms are blooming away, but have not yet reached their peak. Soon, though, my friends. Then they will scatter like snowflakes and we will have to wait a whole year to ride among them again.

Weekday mornings are the best for riding Hains Point. Morning light, fresh morning air, no tour buses, and a few cyclists getting in their morning laps. It’s the perfect time of day for a cherry blossom ride. When you get to the office, you can’t help but be in a good mood after taking in all that beauty. SHHHH! Don’t tell anyone I told you that. It’s our little secret.

See you on the Point?
