Il viaggio della bicicletta.

From my brother, the adventerous and well spoken city biker:

salve!

i completed my first bike commute to work this morning with great success!  the ride begins on riverside park, and continues along the hudson providing beautiful views of sara's home state.  i tranverse manhattan at soho, naviagating through to the williamsburg bridge.  the ascent of the bridge is grueling, but as they say: what goes up, must come down!  the descent is radical and awesome, especially, mom, when i remove my helmet and stand on my seat and handle bars, attempting to surf/fly the bike.  it's really cool.  jj.

this ride provides many exquisite views of the city and it's surrounding bodies of water, and not to mention a better understanding of new york city geography.  it reminds of my days learning rome with a map and a bike.

it took me exactly an hour from door to door, but i believe i can drop that time, as i still have some kinks to work out in the uws/soho/les/burgh parts of the trip.

thanks again for bringing up my bici, it makes me happy.

heart,
p.
