Congratulations. That's the model I ride and I've been super-happy with it. I own quite a few bikes and the Brompton is in the top 2 as far as ride time is concerned.

I would respectfully disagree with the zombie apocalypse t-shirt. Although the zombie revolution will not be motorized, I don't think the Brompton would be the best choice. For one, too many of its parts are specialized and made just for Brompton, which would make maintenance & repair after the collapse of society too difficult. For an average day in New York, however, the Brompton is just about perfect....especially with a big bag up front, the rear rack doesn't hold much and anything back there is subject to heel strike if it is too wide.
