Why Not Walmart, Exxon, CVS

Hey locals, I was taking a break from the ride this morning enjoying a lovely carrot cake cupcake made by the bakers at Petsi Pies and drinking a splendid cup of coffee roasted and brewed by Equal Exchange here in MA and I took a look at their in-house books and I came across The [...]

Up with the sun

The best thing about riding bicycles, trikes and other pedal powered vehicles out there is the pace of life just slows down and whomever is behind the handlebars gets to think about all sorts of stuff. After understanding the bicycle itself and the traffic laws, etc. it is really easy to enjoy the sights, sounds, [...]

A ride to JP

Today I took a nice ride out to Jamaica Plain to deliver farm shares from Enterprise Farm. I got to pick up the shares from City Feed and take the next hour or so riding around the hilly and still snowy streets of JP. It was quite a nice day out there if you ask [...]

Brakes, Brakes, Brakes

I just said that because I put new brake pads on 3 trikes today in case you’re wondering. So, you think you can beat the rush and make it around town to do your errands, huh? Well, I will challenge you… that is unless you are riding a bike. I got to do a multitude [...]

AAA

I played road side mechanic this morning and the rain and wind tried its best to beat me, but I won again! I got to ride in the rain when I least expected it, but got a great morning wake up and a good morning brew of coffee from Bloc 11 Cafe. I’ll spare the [...]

Scraping frost off your windshield

Frost on the windshield again? This is a foreign term for cyclists and we don’t have to spend any time worrying about this. Or warming the car up for that matter. I saw a lot of frost this morning and it made me happy. I know you must be thinking I’m nuts, but frankly, I [...]
