it is windy out but a nice day to be riding!

i know plenty of folks moan and groan about nyc not being what they want/need.

.

ymmv.

Thanks for the offer dude very cool. I called Autozone and they have the battery acid for cheap.

Thanks for help guys, I've never really dealt with the pour your own liquid batteries before.

So it seems some Brooklyn blog/shop took a picture of my bike on the way to the shop:

Hey fellow NYFFers,

Help me win.

Read ther thread here. Or click this link here. Look for "Matt P. NYC, NY" and click "vote."

You don't have to watch the videos, just click vote. Do it today, tomorrow, and every day until February 15.

If I win this round, I go to La Jolla, CA and compete in the finals. If I win there, I get a free trip to a coffee growing country.

Also, if you want to try my drink, go to the Whole Foods on E57th between 2nd & 3rd Aves, go upstairs to the coffee bar and look for the guy with the moustache.

Thanks.

Vote early & vote often.

That sure beats watching the 50 something year old crazy woman shit and piss in her dirty sweatpants and then clean up with a newspaper.

Going thru the station riding the subway round trip you see a lot more
panhandler's thankfully not all at once otherwise the stink would make you pass out

If you want to come out to SI, I have a circular saw. We can go over to HomeDespot and pickup what you need.

Also, they'll cut the lumber to your spec - I think it's like 2 cuts free per piece.

i like how they start jeering at the guy for finally walking away at the end.

i split my time between riding in and taking a bus. i'm gonna watch that video every time i start getting annoyed at taking a bus into the city. nice perspective reset for me there.
