1412 Q Street, NW via The Bike Rack
From The Bike Rack:
“To our Bike Rack DC customers: We hear you!
The Bike Rack has maintained a long-standing and positive relationship with Bell Sports since opening our doors in 2007. In light of Bell’s recent acquisition by Vista Outdoors and Vista’s relationship with the NRA, it is our position that we must divest our relationship with Bell Sports at this time.
We’ve sold Bell and Giro helmets for over ten years now because those helmets do an excellent job keeping our customers safe. Unfortunately, we believe the NRA is actively making our customers less safe. The values of the NRA are simply incompatible with the values of The Bike Rack, and as such we feel compelled to join the NRA Boycott.
This is a decision we do not take lightly and one we gave a lot of careful and deliberate thought.
We still have many good friends in the Bell Sports Group and we want to be clear that this is a message to Vista Outdoors and not to Bell Sports. The Bell/Giro/Blackburn line is a quality line of bicycle products and the company does a great job of community outreach to the cycling community across the board.
Part of our decision involves our current inventory of Bell Sports products. We will donate proceeds from the sale of those products to Moms Demand Action, a non-partisan grassroots movement of American mothers demanding new and stronger solutions to lax gun laws.
Sincerely,
Chuck Harney”

Potomac Harmony is Back! Following a gap year of competing, then virtual rehearsals during the pandemic, followed by the well-earned retirement of our long-term director, a year of a director search, Potomac Harmony hit the regional contest stage in Concord, North Carolina in March for the first time since 2018! It was exhilarating, reaffirming, and rewarding!
The chorus hit all of its goals, the biggest of which was to have fun and sing our best on contest stage — we did both! Because we earned a score over 400 points, our new Director, Allison Lynskey, was awarded the Novice Director award, photo above. Additionally, one of our charter members, Jackie Bottash, was nominated for and honored with the Leadership Excellence award. It was a celebratory weekend!
What’s next? So much! We now look forward to upcoming performances, growing our membership, and expanding our musical product with new arrangements and an education component each week. It’s an exciting time to be part of this ever-growing ensemble!
