Today, we asked “#BikeNYC, does [the first weekend in April] work for NYC’s first tweed/tweet run?”

@BikeSnobNYC chimed in with 4 April 1898 AND did so on his blog! After tonight’s Ignite NYC #8, Brooklyn Edition, the gang of @NewAmsterdamize will be buying a few pitchers of NYC beer!

Being a firm believer in making bike riding a regular and normal part of one’s life I wear my normal clothes but add some extra layers to the ensemble. Today’s forecast is clear and cold! Sunny with wind at 22 mph gusting to 31. The ensemble today will be quite ordinary. The addition of a base layer is the critical difference. – from why she rides, a new #BikeNYC’r
