I Love...
... when my fellow cyclists talk to me when we're stopped at lights. Yes it rarely happens in NYC but when it does it's such an amazing treat!
... little acts of kindness from motorists. It's good to be reminded that they too can be kind and considerate humans.
... cycling across the Brooklyn Bridge at night! Looking at lower Manhattan is my "Holy **** I live in NYC!" moment on the regular.
... racing the BDQN trains across the Manhattan Bridge. They usually win but once in a great while I do!
... that feeling of accomplishment when I beat my best time to work or school.
... how cycling always makes me happier then when I take the subway.

I hate...
... when cars rush by me hit a puddle and spray me.
....when classmates ask me if I'm worried about being hurt or killed while cycling and then state I must be crazy to cycle in NYC.
... when people all most door me hear me yell as I swerve and don't apologize.
... taxis whether yellow, bright yellow green, black or grey. I hate em! Hate them so much!
... that the NYPD occupies bike lanes in non emergency situations.
