Let’s hear it from NYC: Whole Living magazine’s Bike to Work Day event

May 27, 2010 No Comments

♥Thanks so much to Sarah in NY, for sending these over.
I’m so happy to share them, so much fun and full of girl-power awesomeness. Can we have these smoothie incentives, often, nation-wide please?! 😀

Sarah says:
“Wanted to share some photos from
Whole Living magazine’s Bike to Work Day event today in NYC along the Hudson River Park bike path. We served up smoothies via a bike-powered blender and had lots of giveaways including two bikes – a Café 8 by Felt from Zen Bikes www.zenbikes.com and a Gazelle single speed from Gazelle gazellebicycles.us”

boys, from the bike lane, Marin, pinches hills, ride on

I’m. Taking a ride. With Omar.

im. taking a ride. with omar.

The other Sunday Omar and I went for a “short” ride up to Marin. To me, short means coffee. Otherwise it doesn’t exist. Well, we still have coffee, but it wasn’t until we got to the bottom of a mean steady steep hill, and I said:
-oh we are going back to the cafe that way right?-
Omar said: “No, we are going up, down and then back around. Then we go get coffee”

Up and away.

I hadn’t even thought about it much and Omar had taken off.
He said, you got the gears now…”

Two Italians.

Errrrrrrr – ok I went. Was fun. Kinda windy, but OK. We drank coffee at CIBO, the one special spot in Marin currently (the only one perhaps in Sausalito?) serving Blue Bottle coffee. That, itself makes it all worth it. Yes.

Moments of concentration.

So I enjoyed it while I can, then we headed another nasty hill (Alexander dr.) on our way back into the city. I was ready for a hot shower and some more coffee. Cheers.

Let’s Go Ride a Bike: Summer Olympics

May 27, 2010 1 Comment

The ladies from LGRAB have started the Summer Olympics Games.
Here are the details:

How to play, you ask? It’s easy. There are three main categories, and six events in each category. Complete events in each category over a three week period, and tell us about it via blog post link, email or photo addition to our Summer Games Flickr Pool. Entries must include a story and a photo of each event you complete. If you enter via a post on your own blog, please link to our blog announcement in your entry, include one of our badges and let us know via email.

Anyone who completes at least two events in each of the three categories will be entered to win the Batavus BuB by random drawing. We’re also giving away prizes as readers complete each category.
