Seventh Avenue - Argh!
But Wait... What's This?
The DOT was busy installing a bike lane and protected buffer zone on Broadway between 42nd and 35th streets today.
Why just seven blocks between Herald Square and Times Square - I don't know. I mean for cyclists, what's the use of a seven block lane connecting two of the busiest, most impossible to ride a bike to and still maintain your sanity, places in NYC?
Now I can get between them - I just can't get to or from them.
It sure looks pretty. But what's up with the sand?
That gritty crap they are gluing to the street is some kind of abrasive sandy stuff - and yes, they were using glue. I'm not sure what the point is. Is that supposed to be the pedestrian part of the path? Were people falling over when they walked down the street?
Still no place to park my bike and back to working in a building that won't allow me to bring one inside - even if I use the freight elevator.
It's the old conundrum... camouflage the bike and hide it among all the food delivery bikes chained to some local scaffold, or suck it up and take the subway.
Oh well.
Apropos of nothing.
Hundreds of people standing on line to meet wrestler John Cena.

That's bloody brilliant. I can't believe they won't let you bring your bike up! If I were independently wealthy and didn't need that job, I'd tell them to shove it. Alas, things are different in this economy.
