Bike share was made for Pride Day. I rode 13 miles yesterday, just getting around town. First, I rode to church from the Lower East Side to the West Village. From there, rode up to E. 41st St. Tried, and failed, to find the Gay Asian group, so went back home downtown for a respite. Then back up to 41st St. and found Congregation Beth Simchat Torah, so marched with them to 21st St. Then back up to 41st St. and found the Episcopalians (yeah, I swing multi-culty and interfaith that way), and marched with them all the way downtown, back to church and Pride Evensong (which I missed, because everything ran so late). And finally, from there, back home again. Taking my own bike would have been impossible, forget about a car, and public transit would have been impossibly slow, so I couldn't have managed a day like yesterday without the blue bikes.
