Memorial Day 2013

In honor of Memorial Day, the American Flag on the Verrazano-Narrows Bride (in NYC), seemed to be saluting all who have died while in the military service. Some of TLLG's Memorial Day refection's can be found by clicking here.

Cyclin' on Cinco de Mayo!


This past Cinco de Mayo (May 5th 2013), I participated in Bike New York's annual Five Boro Bike Tour where I rode as cyclist #3787; and once again I sincerely want to thank The Achilles Club in New York City (and especially Ayesha Rosena Anna McGowan) for making it possible for me to participate in The Five Boro Bike Tour. 

This was the fifth year that I've taken part in this awesome event with Achilles and the image posted with this narrative shows yours truly with my captain at the start line of the Five Boro Tour. The image was taken by Keegan Stephan of Time's Up, a cycling related organization/charity.
