Back on the ol' Trek with beloved Arkel bag and no cleats + knapsack! Enjoying Alstyne break before rolling down the rest of Corona. Guy in full yellow kit this morning on Corona ave. All the plants at Queens Boro Plaza North are wilting looks like a little botanical garden in transit. Lots of bikes over the bridge. DOT shortcut under the bridge no more. Racing long bus on 2nd ave. to turn on 53rd ave. new pavement between Lex. + Park. Salmoning across 50th instead of deadly 49th is best bet.
