Bike New York

I did Bike NY on Sunday with my friend Matt. At $50 it wasn't cheap but riding on FDR, the Gowanus Expressway and across those bridges was worth it. Thanks to my friend Steve for lending me the bike.

I have a weakness for Wendy's chili. Not that it's very good but it's only $1.07 with tax and is nearly a full meal [low in fat, high in protein and fiber too!]. Also, eating at Wendy's appeals to my New York on the Cheap fantasy where I hold down some fabulous but pitifully remunerative job, live in a $300/mo. room in Newark in a house full of crazy Brazilians, spend my Sundays lounging at Sheep's Meadow, ride the Staten Island Ferry and dusk, traverse the city on unlimited Metrocards, hit-up open bars and gallery openings every night of the week, enjoy opera in Central Park with $5 bottles of Shiraz, pay 25 cents to get into the Met [evil stares be damned], and enjoy free medical insurance provided by the state [no fantasy is perfect].
