This is too funny not to share! Guy totally wipes out trying to film himself riding his bike over the Brooklyn Bridge.
Two little kids shot in leg while riding bike in separate incidents
Did anyone else read these two articles — one from a week ago, and one from just yesterday — about kids being shot in the leg by stray bullets while riding their bikes outside their homes?

Scary stuff.
A new show planned from Dan Delaney, creator of VendrTV. This will obviously be cool. He needs funding!
This is a mockup of a proposed greenway that would encircle Jamaica Bay, and the National Park Service would help create. I don’t think this map is actually available online anywhere yet…
We caught a glimpse today during the Brooklyn Waterfront Epic Ride.
Photos from tonight’s Prospect Park “Moonlight Ride”
The rain held off tonight, and it turned into a perfect evening for one of Time’s Up’s monthly “Moonlight Rides” through Prospect Park.
If you’ve never done one of these (they have one in Central Park each month too!), you MUST try it out. The Prospect Park ride is always the second Saturday of every month — even in the winter!
Our leader, Jonathan, took us through some of the park’s nooks and crannies, and on paths that led to a waterfall, a dog beach, and several great waterfront lookout spots — places I never knew existed from my usual spins around the loop.
Fun fact that I learned: When workers first filled the big lake at the southern end of the park with water after they built it over a century ago, they neglected to seal the lake bed — so all the water drained out!
Here are a few photos I took from tonight’s ride:
This is ME bike riding through the Sonoma wine country in California.
Thanks to the uber-helpful folks at Wine Country Bikes for renting me a nice Trek hybrid!
