Today I rode my bike to work. This past weekend I rode my bike to the grocery store to buy some food for the house. I love riding my bike in the city.

I love the big city value of supporting car-free modes of transportation. People walk, bike, take public transportation and use services like Philly Car Share. We have bike clubs, running clubs, and official and unofficial rides and races of all kinds. Not only is it healthier to walk or ride a bike, but it saves money and the environment.

This morning I was walking the dog like a do almost every morning. Inevitabley I run in to people I know, even it’s just to say hello, like the guy who reads his paper on his stoop almost every morning.  Today, I ran into a neighbor who was picking a piece of trash up from her sidewalk (yes people litter in the Big City and they shouldn’t litter anywhere). She said, “I just made a pot of coffee, would you like a cup?” It was a really nice way to start this cloudy Tuesday.
