means i am outside as much as possible!
i went for another ride on the bike today and really loved it! i didn't have a journey in mind so i just went for it. i ended up riding to Blackstone Blvd where i was a bit of a hero. there was a biker down w/ a crowd of people around and the biker wasn't moving. i sped over to the fire station to alert the guys, they immediately hopped in their truck and went to help someone in need! i wasn't done riding so i headed to Wayland Square, then India Point Park via the new footbridge over 195, and down to the river where Hot Club and Fish Co. are and ended up sitting there for a minute to enjoy the sun. i was cruising around and found a parking lot underneath 195 where some skaters had built their own little skate haven. with protection from the elements hidden under the highway in a freshly paved parking lot they had some homemade quarter pipes, a ledge, and jersey barriers set up. i love seeing a plain space with potential actually get used, i hope it sticks around for a while and they are able to expand the space. after that discovery i headed back to my place via Wickenden and Hope St.
after this ride i know how badly i want a fixie. i've wanted one for a while now, and as much as i love my bike (even with the homemade wannabe-KRINK drip paint job) it's not meant for long city rides. it was born and raised in the dirt which is where it belongs. oh well, i will hopefully be able to buy another bike soon. now it's time for lunch; a homemade smoothie, with chips & salsa... MMMMMM
hope all y'all are enjoying this weather too! here are a few shots from today!
gee
