Jen says, "There's absolutely no better way to see the monuments than by bike. You don't have to deal with the traffic, getting lost on one-way streets, or finding parking. And you don't get so tired as you would if you were walking."
She walked into the National Archives on the spur of the moment and fell into a tour for new White House interns just as the building was closing. She saw the Declaration of Independence and our Constitution. She said, "It was amazing. We had the place to ourselves. I didn't even know we had a National Archives, let alone what was in it!"
Here's Jen across the Tidal Basin from the Jefferson Memorial.

sign me up for the DC tour!!!
Next time you are in Washingotn, drop the Herndon Cyclists a line, we'll clue you in to some great out of town rides.
DC is definitely a great city for cycling. I am back in England now but lived in Washington DC for 2 years. I miss the city a lot!
