> Yesterday I attended the Bike Blessing ceremony at Lafayette Presbyterian Church here in Buffalo. It was the first time this event was held in Western New York and I hope it becomes a tradition. I’m assuming it is modeled after the bike blessing that has taken place at the Cathedral Church of St. JohnContinue reading “>Blessed!”

Song For Bike To Work Week
A reader of this blog from Chicago sent me a link to his video and song he wrote about Bike To Work Week (thanks Chuck). It’s a nice video and song…I like how it zips between traffic.

Things That Can Carried On A Bike (#169 – #172)
All in a day’s ride. An acoustic guitar.Two jackets.A loose-leaf folder. The new DVD, BFLO PNK 1.0 A few miscellaneous groceries. A medium spinach pizza. Another bike. Best thing someone has yelled to me on a bike: Hey buddy, it looks like your bike is having sex. Urban Simplicity.

Things That Can Be Carried On A Bike (#166), and a few comments
A gym bag full of wet clothes.A bag of dog food.Eight AA batteries.A small brick of cheddar. Yes I’m carrying a small block of cheese on a bike…I know there’s a metaphor here somewhere but it hasn’t come to me yet. My point is this: carrying these small, odd, and random things on a bikeContinue reading “Things That Can Be Carried On A Bike (#166), and a few comments”

The Buddy Bike
I’ve been seeing this bike parked outside Campus Wheel Works for the past few weeks and it’s intrigued me; the brand name on it is Buddy Bike. My son snapped the picture with his cell phone and sent it to me. It’s an odd sort of side-by-side tandem (rather than in-line)…and quite honestly it looksContinue reading “The Buddy Bike”

Free Spirited Musicians/Bike Video
This is an inspiring short clip from the SF Bay area…it’s almost an ode to the Yuba Mundo (and other longtails). These truly are the most comfortable and practical bikes. Caution, though…this video may make you want one.

If you’ve previously visited this blog you know that as the name suggests it is my feeble attempt at recording my thoughts and promoting living simply in the city…using a bicycle as a serious and viable form of transportation is a large component of this (I think). Anyhow, the month of May is National BikeContinue reading “Take The Poll.”

Things That Can Be Carried On A Bike (#161)
A small antique table that I “recycled” tonight (i.e. garbage picked); it’ll be beautiful once it’s refurbished. Urban Simplicity.
