alley cat/critical mass/ solidarity ride
it would be an amusing project to set up a race/ride through the city that links up a number of the locations listed on the DC Traffic Camera

DC Traffic Cameras

perhaps the event could select the safer intersections
or
choose the routes that would favor the speed of the bike
such as downhill leading to the intersection
or the bikes taking the route that tends to have the longer green light
then
there would be updates to the progress/leaders via the web
someone could record the streaming video
then splice it all together as a race video

take a look at the cameras
it is funny to see the urban activity....
-city workers sleeping in their trucks
-panhandlers doing their daily thing
and of course
-traffic
-human traffic
-people in cars
-people on foot
and
-some people on bikes
not enough people on bikes
