Hi BAC and friends,
Thanks to all who participated in Monday's rally... it was wonderful to see so many of us out there!!
The Washington Post said there were dozens of protesters, but they were off by hundreds...
Please see the followup note, below.
There will be another rally tomorrow (Thursday) at 5 pm at 15th St. NW and Constitution.
Hope to see you there!
Details below.
Thank you.
Warmly,

Friends:
Congratulations to everyone on two momentous rallies to save the 15th Street ("Cherry Blossom") Bike Lane, one on Sunday and one on Monday. Great job, everyone! And we are already having an impact.
If you weren't able to be there, here is the coverage in the Washington Post:
https://www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2026/03/23/dc-15th-street-bike-lane/
The National Park Service has now announced that it is postponing the date for destroying the Bike Lane to April 23. This is great news. We have them backpedaling.
We are pressing our advantage with another rally tomorrow, March 26, at 5 p.m. at the corner of 15th Street and Constitution Avenue N.W.
The hastily-called rally is in conjunction with the National Bike Summit which is happening this week on Capitol Hill. While this rally will be smaller, it will be at a highly visible location at the height of rush hour. And we expect the participation of one or more U.S. Representatives as speakers. (And, of course, the cherry blossoms will be even closer to peak.)
Please join us if you can, and bring a poster.
--Peter
