(-1D too as happened v. wrote about)

So wondering what to call it,
and someone may have filled in the blanks?
plus more from me...


It was Sunday, so went to check out farmers markets
again, but arriving before 0800a thinking they may start then,
but not until 0900a, so looked around, how far to another,
and had already been there, had done some hills getting there,
but going to go do more, day was early, and had some energy,
so decided to go volunteer in  DC with TBH,
signed up for that, skipping McLeanLidl, 
(
LidlMcLean2022 
+others after that)
as no money
for other things but EBT/SNAP/FoodStamps,
and just kinda painful not getting things,
so didn't even to check what might still be around,
had gotten some water at Aldi, and some errands
previously, so no need, but some small white helmets,
and light sets went discounted,
and was going to be warm, so needed water,
gallon jugs for less packaging,
single use/ individual, 
could have gotten, and on sale at CVS but sale expired,
and feeling bad about that much plastic...

Had packed some things,
a small juice container refilled with water
frozen, and some Frozen FunPops and PineApple
PopSicles (tm ElseWhere?), so some of each, previously had
dairy and got not tolerant, don't do dairy,
so didn't take those and they recrystallized
and other problems having out so long...

Well, still early for an 11am start,
but easier travel as not going around to McLeanLidl
LidlMcLean2022 
this time, and up the MetBranch Trail from Union
Station...

Crossing the bridge into DC, a (homeless?)
baggy guy with at the ramp, thinking he might get hit,
while technically in/on the white line, not a good place,
as take the corner tightly and can't miss him,
told him so, but he was cleaning/rubbing his hands 
not listening nor looking at me 
(thinks headlight is a camera
like a lot of people?), 
so i stuck around for a while,
eventually starting my 15 minute watch timer,
a reminder mostly for me, his hands had something,
like was / had messed with the wheel, tire,
from an angle,  which afaict was off,
i was wearing my usual to volunteer, this case
a reusing from court, TBH jersey,
and some blue cargo shorts, and the two
inner tubes that i usually get water with,
though last time because of the rib problem,
trying to get the power cord from the back,
may have broken, dislocated, bruised?
a rib on the right side, the previous Sunday
going out, and kept going, swelling didn't happen
so most of the pain was later and at night,
and for the week, one side i couldn't sleep on
getting down and especially up was painful,
but lessening over time, wondering about XRays,
and thinking a waste of time/ and money?

But i was going to stay there in a tight turn
on the trail coming down, blind from the DC side,
as turning and not expecting, not unlike the cars
which one eventually honked, and some came past,
he eventually went out, had a juice/ big liquid
container, partially drank from so not thirsty,
and a white guy, not unlike me, but much younger,
and likely lived in the woods, by the bags
on the handlebars, basically in my situation,
or soon to be perhaps, likely wanting something,
but not asking, and possibly trying to get hit,
not responsive, but ambulatory,
and had just seen the Pentagon Police
i saw them and dinged the bell, so not startled,
asked if they were fishing, had a little line (+hook?)
and competing with the heron, they thought
crane, will see, i couldn't take photos around them
as might still be Pentagon, no photos space,
and didn't even try...

Police/ security force(s) were out, and across the
parking lot, wondering if going to be stopped and
lectured, they came around to where i was getting on side
walk for over the bus lines/ and i waved them past,
not sure right of way there and had just done a diagonal
across mostly empty parking lot, so not pushing it,
but trying to get there, and thru...

Wasn't in a terrible hurry so didn't try a
short cut out onto i395 southbound
where there is a little sidewalk beside the path
through the woods and under a bridge, HumpBack?
into the shallow motor marine...

But onward into DC around the mall,
chose the southbound part, and one stop,
an eBike was stopped, but i went through
blocking for him, but he had ear buds in,
and suggested not doing that, one is OK
two illegal or similar, and blew past me
again, likely back in ears, as no where else
to put them?

Out onto gravel, a couple joggers,
one with a man bun, and better man than i to wear
one in this heat...

Diagonal at a stop, and onto sidewalk,
not sure where i can and can't in DC,
Central Business Districts and barking dog,
small yippy one, but not seen,
two pedestrian, both men, so i mentioned
a Rat dog, found something, and they laughed...

Pass the homeless tents North of the Union Station,
some debris on the sidewalk, may be a touristy? (sp?) book
fell and left there...  Partially open and
losing a (few) page(s), so not sure, 
but not picking it up
either...

Up the ramp for rail trail and two guys,
a black guy skinny tired past, and
yeah, faster, tan too...

and made it to BrookLand Ace HardWare,
Annie's #2, a SunDay 11-1/1300p clinic
but arrive early to set up so 1045a?
take photos i'm there, wonder if cancelled
as was last weekend with the heat,
start on my PopSicles, the PineApple,
as in cellophane and melted would
make a mess, gut comments on it,
so i offer him one, and he offers money,
but i can't and get to talking,
much of which i'm not going to get into,
i do mention interviewing him,
and gave him my contact information,
websites, DancesWithCars.CrazyGuyOnABike.com
and NoVAPeers.PBWorks.com
and DancesWithCars@gMail.com
but it's slow getting the things right,
typing into a smart phone,
and checking...

And a guy shows up, skinny tired,
and low back, i offer a small Lidl pump,
and switch the adapter from Schrader (sp?) to
Presta (sp correct afaict), it works for him, 
leaning over and a lot of pumping, 
but better, and didn't lose air,
but there's a shared one i didn't try on the
MetBRanchTrail, so maybe sometime,
missed taking photos of the art,
and a long time waiting, it seemed,
those being most of the interactions,
oh, a kid with police hat with dad,
walking buy, worried i'd be arrested/
warned for not sharing PopSicles,
and offered him one while guy pumping
up his skinny tired,
he thinks he's going to call it got a
BJ? or something implied, as doesn't
really like me, and talks of wife,
while lisping, so not sure DL or something,
likely what i call her and further stalking,
like my last visit, when open...

A lot of bike traffic along there, and
most doing Ok, some kids and eBikes,
some rentals, and other things,
but i'm doing my usual, wait for a second,
and i didn't sign up to host/ lead,
so letting others do that,
but help out when the lead arrives,
and eventually look for a table,
others got the cart and stands,
and tool box, etc...

Can't find the table(s), but got a sign,
and turns out there are a couple,
and when shown a rack with two tables,
get that down carry that, thinking there
is usually a handle and doing the latch
so doesn't ope up on me a folding one,
set up and get started,

well a long clinic, tire tube change,
i start on, and end up being called over
to look at some other things, i usually can't
stay on much of one project, usually
one to one and some get protective/
paternal/ maternal and don't like other
inputs, which has happened both clinic site(s)
with/against me,

but people are taking the frozen pope,
and not worrying about them,
let them pull it out of the mesh or bag,
their rather clean hands at this point,
i'd had 3? frozen pope at 17g sugar each
cooling off from the ride up and  waiting,
the kid had been offered a pop, the dad
declined, and hat off? or returned, idk,
but some other tings,
mostly personal/ business to TBH
so leaving that out,

i ask permission to work on my own,
just before/at or after had suggested 15 minute
closing in 15 minutes warning, finish up
things, wondering about getting a gear shift
cable housing, but ended up clipping off
the hairs on the older one, and ends
up making it sharper and shorter,
likely poking my inner leg getting on and off,
or up and down on the saddle, wouldn't think
that far up, but happens...

and my bike keeps falling down,
not sure why, someone
complaining can't leave it there,
and eventually about the third time,
move it to the racks nearby, locks and
an eScooter or stuff there, but more stable
than a sign and reinforced, with a pole
driven in, turns out Annie's
may be changing hands, sold to someone,
who's name i don't know,
but remember the guy i was talking about
earlier, and not talking about...

But wrapping up some get extended time,
most people go to a bar after wards,
i wasn't and they didn't afaict,
not a lot of money, taking out the part
one lead sold to someone, for $20
and i don't take out the pops
so $3 for a day of group of volunteers,
but something, not nothing, and
i'd mentioned donations based to a few,
some seemed to want to meet me,
one i gave my contact about welding
and talked eBike, some political
candidate, and sign in and
may surprise the *co)founder(s)
see FoundersSyndrome2021?
FoundersSyndrome2021 
or similar for previous history,
but DC issues and not going to do the WABA
petition and lobbying, and try to get
him to DC people, but could go direct
not through WABA my bike advocacy days
likely waning...

But get going, after using the bathroom
and refreshing trip into A/C as put the
table back up but can't reach the
bungee cord, hoods and eye loops,
need a boat hook and staff others don't know
what that is...
Mayabe learn some time, but liability
and don't want it falling,
someone finds a step stool only a couple
feet, but works out,
and get going...


Down and out, slowly, no rush
and warm,  past the pump, and artwork
not stopping for either,
thru the mall, and gravel, and went on the
two way dedicated bike lanes past the
Holocaust (sp?) museum, used to be
couldn't bike through a memorial sidewalk
when open, or similar threats, but
now i just avoid it...

Up and over, oncoming RentABikes and get
myself stuck in a jersey barrier,
as took a path too close to the paddle boating
ThomasJefferson's memorial reconstruction areas,
and asked for help lifting up and over
but they kept going, so stop and eat
the remaining frozen, nope, but still cool,
to cold FunPop finally counting the plastic tube
and cellophane plus wooden sticks,
6 and 5? which is which, and entered,
into smart phone cooling off, some
but jersey barriers had shit/mud
on edges, and leaning sitting on those,
but walk out, and don't tear up the
protected grassy area?

And it had started raining on return,
someone had said emergency and take
rail, but not listening/ obeying,
that AdVice/ or demands/
up and over, some wind and oncoming
bikers, others had raced ahead of it,
but overcast so no burning sun,
and cooled it off some, wondering about
backpack and rain cover think i changed it
before the bridge, not sure the forecast,
didn't really seen know it was to rain,
but in case...

left the 29" tire, remembering
that he had a 26? but maybe he cam trade it,
and keeping my 26' tubes with holes,
some on the back now, the 29" tire
was abrasive aon my left arm,
looped over me neck, and eventually
under one arm, so glad to get rid of it,
telling the oncoming woman why it was
left as not pollution, check back later
and take it off if not taken by then...


And get really thirsty by the Pentagon
parking lots, slow going getting there,
asphalt and a long ways,
so go to diagonal, and into Pentagon City,
Harris Teeter, seems there's a Target just
before it i didn't know about, they may
take EBT, IDK, never tried?
but some other time, and didn't find clearance
shelves, got a cheap 1/2 gallon vanilla ice
cream, skipping oversize and expensive
juices/ lemonades, even 2 for $4 turkey hill,
tried, and 2 for $5 Simply LemonAde,
going with frozen  colder, and dairy
as didn't have with pops, and colder...

Start eating that outside on a bench,
losing the cool of inside A/C but eating some,
with packed HoBo tool, and remembered the
Park multitool, had shown that to someone
includes tire levers, and chain tool,
(not mentioned as not tried at bike clinic)
but can report the Presta part worked
on the Lidl $5 clearance Pump and
got yelled at by someone, not sure,
seemed Annie, but not, so someone else
doesn't like me i guess, maybe even
dumping my bike over repeatedly,
harassing or something?
and not transparent about it,
host dealt with it somehow...
chalk that up to heat and things
changing of the guard(s),
wonder if we will still be there?
and other negative feedback, idk,
seems like a good deal for them
and warehouse ordering benefit
but lost our parts guy, left town,
and i didn't go to the (drinking/eating)
party nor even send in testimonial,
nor send a guy who had a trike, as never
heard back from him, but may have
been a guy honking at the bidge,
seemed like his car, back in town
for something? giving keys?
Idk,
helping the homeless guy instead,
go on down to VeloCity a group kid ride
passed and would help him out,
free stand time and parts?
for the homeless, idk,
DC border and do it yourself,
we don't have parts, supplies
as not brick and mortar,
and theirs GearinUp  nearby,
but not for walking from the bridge,
have to take Metro or something


But ate the ice cream, started on it,
and worried it would melt and leak all
inside the bag(s), including the cooler
one the backpack straps ripped out on,
and using inside the also ripped out
silver reflective $20 panniers set...
Likely overloading both, but
gets a reality check on what you can/
can't carry with them,
had cooler bags later but missed them,
and don't have money...

But up the hill, came in from Pentagon City
underpass and construction, used to be
a gas station there, and deciding not
to take SouthGate, construction and no
reason, so walk up the hill to Missing Man,
and jogger coming down reporting on my progress,
guess i'm still on (super)base/ and doing
security / detail, somehow, but getting
warm and up hill, and have to cross, losing
the sidewalk at the Missing Man,
still there, but guess i'll ready directions
for a change, and i'm down, got really hot
by then, and just lay down, i'd done it elsewhere,
coming up from the river i later remember,
on the ChainBridge in the sun, SunDay?
trip early in the aeason, and failed,
but had watched RoutesOfChange
mentioned it to a MotorHead earlier,
and i'm just plain stubburn,
but people don't respond well to someone
down, and layed (sp?) / laid the bike down
had taken some things off,
but down on the hat cement sidewalk,
and cars stopped, don't die on my base/
other side, comments, from the air conditioned
Missing Man gatehouse? thru a speaker?

But Asian Women/ man and offered heir water bottle,
already started so i declined,
a mix of can't they leave me alone
and can't talk well as saving breath and energy,
give hime some space, all the CO2 and car fumes,
not far from the InterState, and construction
not trees, and posts, almost mining drilling
foundation work going on behind fencing
but cooler i guess not on the sidewalk,
can't be down, have to sit up which compresses
the chest even more, and less breathing,
but theirs more wind up top, not that far,
but couldn't before fall down,
eventually get back up, and keep going,
downhill wind riding will help
but can it get my leg up over the
top bar? without dumping the whole baggy lot?

Considered asking about a bathroom at the
local homeless shelter which is right there?
or Detox, something county,
next to state highway Comms,
looks closed, and signs, am i going to barf
up my ice cream that went down cool?
why didn't i buy expensive water too?
mix of too much sugar,
had i think fish cooked early am,
1 pound went down to 100g after cooking
so more like leather(s)/ jerky?
and didn't get anything from the farmers market(s),
as not open yet, talked at after taking pictures
a pork vendor had lemonade set up
but an hour into waiting, which i wasn't going to...


And starting up the next hill, out from
Washington Blvd? loop one of the busiest
and most dangerous intersections in Arlington,
now somehow redone with FreedMan's Bidge?
but it's narrow and going up hill,
and down again,
lay things down, and can't say up
on the bordering fence and ledge,
so down and in an edge, and people again
stop and try to help/ assist,
one guy brings water, i'd asked for
cold filtered and he brought some,
from home nearby, but the top didn't
pop and i asked about it,
don't want to get sick,
but maybe poured from,
and refilled, and a woman,
maybe Jamaican and her daughter,
and they take the stuff away from me,
and lean it one someone's property,
instead of the sidewalk,
where are they going with my stuff?
but guess others can walk by,
and i end up talking to her
but she has to go,
she got the ice cream out the back
and i eventually ask for the
frozen juice bottle i had put in to
keep the pops cold, and ate some
but being rushed, she has to go
to take her daughter somewhere,
unspecified, no i don't want a ride,
doing non motored, and fill her in on
information including court,
and cal family? don't want to worry them,
inspections, etc...

But up and she's dropping the heavy bike,
and sorry ,but that mirror does that,
pops off,  and it's a neighborhood move along,
police charge?
i'd said i was overheated, and others
are thinking calling 911 which i don't want,
disastrously expensive to me,
and can't do much, won't go in,
etc...

Someone supervising seems to call it an
advance National Night Out training/preview,
and others had given other names,
including blocking someone hating,
maybe even arresting, detaining,
idk, but someone had experience with this
stuff, guess police nearby but not seen,
or something like that,
Neighborhood Watch?
no on my sidewalk,
but Giant was the next planned stop,
a bathroom there, and A/C
and get something cold,
more water, etc,
wonder what clearance bakery is there,
but skipped it, downhill and breezy
and keep going, a little uphill going past
the farmers market not yet open that
(early?) morning and another hill at Harris Teeter,
don't need to stop almost there,
and get home and down...

End up showering,
down damp on a sheet
after having put some things in the freezer,
weigh ice cream later,
and the rest of the ice (mass?) cube inside
the juice bottle, and fridge the remaining
now warm water large bottle,
thanks by the way,
may have turned more negative afterwards,
but helped me get home,
for as long as i have one,
that...

But up in the night, eating,
weigh and finish the ice cream,
turns out 1.5 Quarts, less than 1/2 gallon,
and looking up suggested protein,
3 g per 2/3 cup of ice cream,
had had packed Goetz (sp?) caramels creams,
wondering about making some food,
reuse the glass skillet from fish soaked,
to pork roll, and canned black beans,
some tomato and other things,
to fill up, but finishing ice cream,
peaches from CAFB and what food to use
up if have to go, asap this week...
