AWESOME!!! I rode my bicycle home yesterday (almost 6 miles), and beat my coworkers to my street (we left at the same time, and they were driving).
For those of you leaving the base at the core hours?
Why, do you plan on doing the posted speed limit in the left lane?
Yes. Or I could just sit in traffic for an hour, tapping the gas and hitting the brakes. :shrug:
The driver of the bus I took yesterday did that.
By the end of the trip I wanted to strangle someone.
Despite the nausea? Stop.....Start.....Stop.....Start.....
Yeah.
Bicyclist Faster than Cars!
Why, do you plan on doing the posted speed limit in the left lane?
Left at 4:30. Waiting to get out the gate a bicyclist passed me. When I got to Best Buy he was in the parking lot already.
and by "in the parking lot already," you mean that he had gone to the spa, got a pedicure, shopped at best buy, and then was getting ready to leave the parking lot when you showed up? that would sound about right.

I hope not. Anyone who goes the posted speed limit leaving base is bound to slam into someone, since traffic is backed up.
I don't know who had the bright idea of closing gate 3, but with furlough core hours reducing the amount of time most people leave base, then closing gate 3 so it clogs the only road out for most of the base (Cedar Point), someone sure wasn't thinking. OR they were ordered to "show pain" and decided they'd #### over their employees by cutting 20% pay AND making them deal with more traffic.

Bingo! we have a winner! 15 minutes to get from the hangar to gate 1. F*ckin a$$turds who want to make a right hand turn out gate 1 from the left lane :shrug:
I may be misunderstanding your gripe; but there are THREE right turn lanes going out Gate 1. O.I.C, you mean, trying to turn right from the FOURTH lane to the left, that's NOT a turn lane. Amirite?
On a more basic level, why do you NEED to go off base at lunch time. There is no way you can do launch within the alloted 30 minutes. And don't feed me that crap that you combine the AM and PM 15 minute coffee break with the lunch to get an hour. I know there is limited choices for lunch on the base, but bring you own. That's what I did for years.
