Yesterday I took the day completely off and had an absolute ball rockin a Mets game. Not only did we get VIP seats – which gave us access to all kinds of cool areas but the Mets won too, sweeping the series!! Awesome day! This afternoon I rode my fixie for about 12 miles, just [...]

Longer rides through Brooklyn

Had another amazing ride today with Wendy. The weather was beautiful, the sun was shining and down in Far Rockaway the boys were surfing! I gotta say that even though I am a little freaked out by the ocean, (near death experienece in Guatemala a few years back) surfing really does look like an incredible [...]

Can I tell you how excited I am to have this as my Saturday forecast? The sun will shine the temps will warm me and I’ll be peddling my beautiful Trek as far as these little legs will take me. Wendy’s already said she’s in, and I may even have another friend on board for [...]

I didn’t have a whole lot of destination in my walking, I just wanted to enjoy the beautiful day without [...]

injured.

It seems I’ve done something to strain my neck and I really can’t do much of anything at all at the moment. I’m mobile and everything so it’s not too bad but there is definately no bike riding on the agenda for today. I saw a chiropractor yesterday but I don’t think he really helped [...]

off to a good start

This morning I woke up in serious pain from the long ride yesterday. I was thinking I might call it a rest day until my friend Greg came to my sanity’s rescue. We met up in Prospect Park and even though I could only muster a few meager loops I feel so much better for [...]
