New York Fire Dept. firefighters and their support team arrived at DC Fire Dept. Engine Station 12 for a lunch break before biking to Manassas where they'll spend the night. They had started in Baltimore this morning so they had already ridden 50 miles when they cruised in to D.C.

The Babes helped welcome them to D.C. and joined them in their ride to the Pentagon.

Read more about their ride across America at www.firehouse.com. The Washington Post has an article about this day (and mentions the Babes) here

Dan and Sal, two of the five firefighters biking across America to thank the citizens
for their support, arrive at Station 12.

and has created all of our wonderful posters over the
last two years.
