DC Metro Interconnects
"Keith F. Lynch" wrote in message
news:c3tn6q$kr5 But when I need to get to Greenbelt proper, rather than Beltsville or College Park, I have to exit the station in the opposite direction, and brave the parking lots. There's no way to get to Greenbelt proper via Lackawanna Street without walking miles out of my way, either up to Sunnyside or down to Greenbelt Road to cross the rail line. (Metro ends there, but another rail line continues north.) You can bike/walk to Greenbelt proper pretty easily. I bike it all the time. It's about 2.5 miles. Exit station (not via the Marc tunnel, the main way). Avoid the parking lot entirely by turning LEFT after exiting station and follow the Kiss-n-Ride/Bus access road that goes clockwise around parking lot. Just follow the buses. Turn LEFT at Cherry Lane, cross over beltway, RIGHT on Ivy Lane, and RIGHT on the last road before Kenilworth, just past the last building on right (can't recall name, may not be marked). That road dead-ends, but there is a little (and I do mean little) paved cut-through to Crescent road about 50ft. long. Take the 50ft cut-through to Crescent road, cross Kenilworth at the light, and follow Crescent into G'Belt proper. There are bike paths on Ivy Ln., Cherry Ln., and Crescent because this is supposed to be the "official" bike route from the station to G'belt proper, for whatever that is worth. Except on the short section of Cherry Ln, the traffic is light enough and the lanes wide enough most of the way that the drivers don't seem to care if you ride in the lane as necessary. In my experience, G'belt drivers, in contrast to other burbs I've biked in, are pretty kind to cyclists. YMMV of course. --multiplaza.nl.nu-- |

I guess "terror" is in the eyes of the victim.
I would think that the present definition of "Terror" is; Acts of clandestine violence Carried on by irregulars ( guerillas ) Without a formal declaration of war. ( hence their Country is blameless ) Against a civilian/non-combatant population or infrastructure. ????
