Cargo Bike Reviews
I recently came across this review of cargo bikes on the website of Bicycling Magazine. I was intrigued because one of the bikes they reviewed was the Yuba Mundo, which of course is the main bike I ride. I didn’t necessarily agree with the reviewers comments of the Mundo (or the rest of the cargoContinue reading “Cargo Bike Reviews”

Bicyclists Behaving Badly (and my improper response)
Image found here. Before I begin I have to state a few things in the event you’ve not read this before on this blog. Firstly, while I am a bicycle advocate I am by no means car-free but I am car-lite; sometimes more lite than others…and during the summer months I am nearly car-free. TodayContinue reading “Bicyclists Behaving Badly (and my improper response)”

Vélo Québec (on sharing the road)
I came across this short wordless clip on Treehugger and found it interesting. It’s part of the Vélo Québec Partage la Route campaign (sharing the road).

Lone Wheel
I was walking down the street the other day and saw this lone wheel sitting at the edge of the pavement, and as I often do I had my camera with me so I snapped a shot. I wonder two things: What was it doing there and why did nobody pick it up. At anyContinue reading “Lone Wheel”

More Fortune Cookie Philosophy
Take this how you will, but I believe it to be true. And no I do not see God as an old grey haired man with a long beard sitting on a golden throne judging us…but more of the source of our very being; the reason that we live and breath and why we areContinue reading “More Fortune Cookie Philosophy”

Lebanese-Style Chicken and Brown Rice
This is one of my all-time favorite recipes. It’s one that I grew up with and it’s also one which I shall never tire of. I’ve posted it–or variations of it–on numerous occasions, but because I believe it is so delicious and easy to make I thought I’d post it again. The main difference betweenContinue reading “Lebanese-Style Chicken and Brown Rice”

Tattooed Mike and his Boom Box Trike (and why I love this neighborhood)
This past weekend was the Allentown Art Festival and the Allen West Festival here in Buffalo. If you’ve never visited our city, Allentown (click here and here) is a small village within a medium sized city (but getting smaller). I’ve heard people use the analogy that Allentown is our version of Greenwich Village, but IContinue reading “Tattooed Mike and his Boom Box Trike (and why I love this neighborhood)”

Nature’s Beauty
When I was getting on my bike yesterday I saw a few flowers that–for lack of better words and while not trying to sound too hokey–stopped me in my tracks. Beautiful. I snapped a few pictures and thought I’d share a couple. (Click them for a larger view.)
