Spotted a bunch of these posters in downtown frederick last week. Looks like they were designed by a graphic artist and the posters ranged in size from a postcard to nearly 4ft x 4ft. What Im getting at is that someone put some time and money into these posters but they overlooked some details. The picture of the bike is highly stylized...almost like it was made into a vector image. and they are black and white.. I'm a bike guy and I have no clue what type of bike this is....and I'd have no idea if I were standing right next to it while reading the poster.

The subway system is generally clean..the exception...Fulton Street. Im sure there are plenty more but Fulton is the only time I've ever felt like I was in a bad 80's flick filmed in ny. I was ready to be mugged by a group an chinese thugs wearing mesh shirts and headbands.

First bar of the week...Good World, cozy little dive in Chinatown. None of those fancy joints for me. Definitely trendy but in the tight jeans, t-shirt amd tattoo kinda way.

Penn Station NYC

All Aboard..

Off to NYC this week for more schooling. Taking the train instead of plane. It's sooo much easier than flying when going to NY. You can show up minutes before your train is supposed to depart and simply walk out to the platform to board. Pretty much no security at all. Not sure if thats a good thing but it sure is conveinient.

Portable island is getting more use than expected. Don't know I didn't think of it sooner. Actually thinking of upgrading to a larger 8 person version already.

Glad that experiment is over....going out of my way to drive exaclty the speed limit, be very light on the gas and even draft off the occasional tractor trailer managed to get my mpg's up to 26.5 from the normal 22.5 I get. Minimal savings...considering the contrast in driving style. I think I'm going to remove the roof rack and go with a hitch rack to see what that gets me. If I remember correctly, I think I was getting an additional 20-30 miles out of a tank..more

The Berg



I did manage to get a video from Iceberg....I.shot this one. Alex coming off of a little rock drop near the end. Only a small kinda lame sample of what Iceberg has to offer.

The spiteful jackass farmer is back at it again. The thing that sucks is I only run into him if Im already running late. He seems to have backup with him since the incident. It angers me knowing he does it purely out of spite but bbesides that I could care less. Other peole freak out...waving their arms in the air, cursing, turning their vehicles and burning off.
