I have the best commute to work in DC. I bike down Rock Creek, along the Potomac River, past the Kennedy Center, Lincoln Memorial, and Washington Monument. Every commute is like taking a mini vacation. Don't need a car in DC, don't own a car, love my bike.

Don't own a car so I'm always walking, biking, or taking the metro (subway). Here I am enjoying my walk to work - love the 2 mile walk, feels wonderful.
