so last night,
the boyf & i explored
a new part of town
by bike,
and we rode up on
***
since:
i knew i wanted
to try out the challenge of
exploring a new part of town,
but thought,
"hey, i know every part o' town there is!
how will i ever explore something new??"
[my naivety strikes again]
the boyf and i took a late-afternoon-into-twilight ride
from
Alley Pond Trail in Bellerose
to
Kissena Park in Flushing,
and
--as usual with our rides--
i was following him along streets,
into the park,
back out again,
up hills,
downhills...
...
then
he turns into a parking lot.
i was like, what the??
i realized that
we were near a few softball fields that
the boyf used to play on.
when i used to watch his games
[well, half-watch them]
i remember peeking over

at the velodrome.

i hadn't whipped out my camera the whole ride.just got these few in of
loser me with the sign...haa haa!

but the sun went down fast.

...and YouTube makes it a friggin' blurry mess,
but
here's a quick vid of me pedalling around the v-drome:
***
i encourage ya'll to bike:

on the way home, we rode up on
a house fire:
the firefighters and neighbors and trucks and hoses and commotion...
...it was like a movie...
