From Northfield Rd., Bethesda, MD, then to 13th & C St. SW, Washington, DC. Though I didn't start that quickly, I picked up the pace when I got through some intersections with green lights and clear traffic. The cool temperatures and a good tailwind helped a lot. They also brought out a lot of other cyclists. As I passed some people, I led 1 or 2 others until after Fletcher's Boathouse. 2 faster riders went by when I thought I was doing pretty well. There was some construction traffic in Georgetown and on the sidewalk just as I was arriving to work. It felt like a pretty fast ride.

From 13th & C St. SW, Washington, D.C. to Northfield Rd., Bethesda, MD. There were headwinds and traffic getting to Georgetown. I was slow getting out. After rounding some turns on the Capital Crescent Trail (CCT), the winds became more favorable.
