On the bike…a gym bag containing wet clothes, and two bottles of red wine. A brief story…I coasted up to the community center at my usual time (and before I had the wine on the bike and wet clothes in the bag), which is also the time that parents often pick up their kids fromContinue reading “Things That Can be Carried on a Bike (#461), a brief story, and a couple comments…”

Vélo de Poste…and a quick comment
I was looking through some photos of a trip I took to Paris with my son last July when I came across this photo of a mail carrier’s bike (click here, here, and here to see more photos from that trip). I remember seeing this bike locked to a railing and thinking how much senseContinue reading “Vélo de Poste…and a quick comment”

But what I wanted to mention is something that I noticed…not so much about the weather itself but more so about awareness of it. The reason I mention this isContinue reading “Things That Can be Carried on a Bike (#455)…and a brief comment about the weather”

On the bike…a canvas bag containing two books, a camera, and some papers. A paper bag containing various food leftovers.
