thanks

i haven't ridden my bike in a long while, and i knew it needed some tune-ups, but i decided to get on it for a short ride tonight along beechwood blvd. annnnd i wiped out going around a bend. i have no idea if the guy who helped me frequents this board or not, but big thanks to the guy with the kid on the back of his bike for fixing my derailleur enough to get my bike back home w/o dragging it.


more thanks to the 3 or 4 other bikers who stopped to see if things were ok. <3 you, pittsburgh bike community.

Always good to hear. when I was waiting for the bus this morning, leaning against my bike (multi-modal you know) a guy stopped to make sure I was ok. It's good to be part of a community like that.
