Trail Conditions in Arlington
Trail conditions in Arlington aren't much better than Vienna. I tried taking the cyclocross out this afternoon to see if I could ride out to work and ended up carrying the thing most of the way. One bright spot: there is a half mile stretch of trail between N Patrick Henry Dr. and Madison Manor Park that is clear enough to ride on. Of course, you have to carry your bike through a half mile of snow in either direction to get there.
Other than that, between the Custis Trail intersection at Bon Air Park in Arlington and Gallows Rd in Vienna, there's anywhere between 6 in to a foot of snow still on the trail. Basically, if you own a dogsled now is your time to shine. For everyone else: see you in April.
