For many, biking is the sane way to get to inauguration
If you ever had any thoughts about being in DC for any major event, biking through DC while traffic is a near standstill is just awesome! Not to mention participating in the events themselves.
A bike route from Baltimore to DC: <a href="http://bikewashington.org/routes/dc2balt/index.htm">http://bikewashington.org/routes/dc2balt/index.htm</a>
I'll note the above site has other "invasion" routes to DC if you happen to live somewhere else near DC.
The inauguration is Monday, January 21. <a href="http://dc.about.com/od/specialevents/a/Presidential-Inauguration-2013-Washington-Dc.htm">http://dc.about.com/od/specialevents/a/Presidential-Inauguration-2013-Washington-Dc.htm</a>
