One cannot imagine that this has been a terribly successful Bike To Work Day considering that the District was under flash flood warning until a few minutes ago and most of the city heard those tell tale sirens on their phones as early as 7:00 a.m. Plus, anyone dedicated enough to the cause to bike to work today through the torrential downpour probably deserves more than a free t-shirt. That said, this afternoon, the region will look less like the set of a blockbuster disaster film and there are a couple of pit stops opening as early as 4:00 p.m. So, here's a map of those Bike From Work spots since riding in the sunlight is often a preferable experience. Just remember, the free t-shirt can only be picked up at the station at which you registered in advance.

The Blairs is a fairly large complex of buildings, so know that you'll find the Bike From Work people in the shopping center next to Oriental East. Their window is a little smaller; they'll only be around between 4:30 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. Photo by Adam Fagen.

Take note: the afternoon pit stop at College Park is not in the same location as their morning pit stop. You'll have to go to the metro's Bike & Ride station for this round of cheers. They will be around between 4:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m. Photo by Flickr user thisisbossi.

Also, you're welcome whether you registered to pick up swag at this spot or not. Photo by Kat Walsh.
