> Photo culled from the Ice Creamcycle Dude’s facebook page I see this guy riding everywhere…pedaling about a mile and hour, dinging his bell, and always smiling. It always makes me smile when I see him pedaling merrily by. Such a simple concept, one may think…buy a trike with a refrigerated compartment, get a permit,Continue reading “>James the Ice Creamcycle Dude”

Things That Can Be Carried On A Bike (#33)
A case of bottled water.Two cases of flavored juice drinks. (It’s amazing how heavy liquids are…slight frame sway…this small load felt three times its size.)

Suburban Sprawl vs. Urbanism
Just came across this short video at cargocycling.org. It’s a bit idyllic in hopefulness; it’s a short clip and worth the couple minutes to watch.

David Byrne Is A Bike Advocate
I just learned that David Byrne, front man for the Talking Heads, is a life-long bicycle advocate. How cool is that. I always liked their music, now I can appreciate him as a person even more. My favorite album by the Talking Heads is More Songs About Buildings and Food (not that you asked)…it isContinue reading “David Byrne Is A Bike Advocate”

Inappropriate Car Behavior
Photo courtesy of sustrans Like many neighborhoods, the one in which I live was built before the invention of the automobile…many of the streets are narrow and crowded, and for that reason cars sometimes feel out of place (to me)…sometimes the streets simply are not wide enough. Anyhow, I was on my way to workContinue reading “Inappropriate Car Behavior”

An Omelette and a Glass of Wine
Tonight for dinner I was able to pick my first bit of food from the garden (exciting)…mostly herbs, and a few scant leaves of spinach, but food none-the-less. I chopped everything rather coarsely, then sauteed it all in olive oil with garlic…making a sort of cross between sofrito and fines herbs. Then I added theContinue reading “An Omelette and a Glass of Wine”

Urban Beauty
This morning I woke feeling extremely stressed about various things. I know deep down everything always seems to work out OK, but when I’m stressed it’s as if I have blinders on and can’t see the beauty right in front of me. For that reason, when I went to the gym I chose to walkContinue reading “Urban Beauty”
