MSNYC Bike Tour 2004

Team Tortoise
This past weekend was the Multiple Sclerosis Society of New York's annual cycling event, a circuit around Manhattan and beyond. T. decided against better judgment to join me for the tour. As a concession, we only went for the 45 mile circuit, which would allow us to still ride the empty streets, but also to go through the Lincoln Tunnel and back over the George Washington Bridge. Good times, and a great event!

We upped the degree of difficulty by doing the tour on R. and my Bromptons, the classic English folding bicycle. We were quite the spectacle.

Small victories. Realising that her pre-tour training may not have been sufficient, T. nearly pulled a Rosie Ruiz on me (easy with the folding bikes), but I managed to coax her back to Chelsea. Wonder if she's going to talk to me after this...
