I want to publicly thank a few friends who, in their own ways, inspired me to finally get a bicycle and start riding it as a primary means of transportation around the city. I’ve always been philosophically pro-bike but never much of a bike rider. For a little over a month now I’ve been riding the 4-5 mile ride to work and very much enjoying it. I’ve also found good excuses for loops around Central Park, Prospect Park and rides up and down the west side greenway bike path. So thank you Lizzie, Amanda, Jacob and Chris.

I haven’t registered yet, but I’m hoping to do the upcoming Tour de Brooklyn.
