New York Bound!!
March 7th, 2010 § Leave a Comment
Well, it’s finally Spring Break (at least it is here in State College) and for the first time…ever, I get to actually go on a vacation! My friend Frank and I are going to take a trip up to New York to cruise around the boroughs! I have never been anywhere in New York State before and with our plan of biking around the cities, this is sure to be a great vacation!
I might even try my hand at fixed gear riding since I do have that flip flop hub on my Gritty. I’m glad I got a new bike; I don’t think any of the second hand bikes in my fleet would be able to stand up to city riding without overhauling them completely. Shame really. One day I’ll fix that. I just need to win the lottery first haha!
Also, it’s supposed to be nice and warm for a bit so it will actually be a Spring Vacation and, we won’t have to ride through the crappy weather the East Coast has been getting hit with.
Riding the Gritty in the city will also help me to give a proper review of it. Look out for that review as well. Now that I have some much needed free time, I can properly update this site.
I’m going to update this blog on my whereabouts throughout my stay, with pictures and the random shenanigans we get in to.
This should be fun! Stay tuned!
