Bikes. In all their metal glory. My bike sustains my primary survival needs. A day without it, is comparative to a day without water. I'm interested in bike mechanics and bikes as a catalyst for sustainability. I enjoy propelling myself. I contemplate over ideas of optimizing health regularly. Raw foodism captivated me last summer, (thanks to another assertive raw foodist) and it continues to preside and remain one of the leading factors towards my lifestyle. I appreciate simplicity. I usually take the long way if possible, I still enjoy the excitement of waiting for a roll of film to be developed,and nothing beats making your own food from scratch. The unprocessed goods. Organic goods. Fruits and vegetables are the love of my life. Dodging potholes/cars/pedestrians on the bike. The release of pre-conceived ideas. The art of cleansing, detoxing and fasting. Drawing closer to those who are "presumably" socially akward or avoidant. Making new connections with unlikely candidates. Waking up well before the sun rises. I'm intrigued by bike messenger motivation. Debauching prototypical beauty. Appreciation of my long-standing friendships with the Ladies of Norwood. The simplicities I adore are; chaotically eating mangos wihout any utensils, writing orders on carbon paper (this was once my dream as a child). Afternoon Siestas, day dreaming. I enjoy being enthrawled, engulfed by positive persuits. Humanitarian aid work seems to occupy quite a bit of passion in me, mostly in theory for the moment. I used to think that travel was necessary for such a quest, I no longer believe that. There are so many opportunities for change here in this city it's overwhelming but also a form of motivation for me.This is what I think about all you ladies on your bicycles...
I hold creative individuls in high regard. People less likely to stick out in a crowd are usually the ones who end up intriguing me beyond reason. Shock me, Inspire me, Motivate me, Thrill me, Stimulate me, Question me.Bikes are the new cars. Random NYC bike messengers... Secondly, this precious baby...
First and foremost I'm very eclectic when it comes to my taste in music, I don't necessarily adheare to any sort of genre... if it can alter my mood and make me dance well then I like it! David Bowie, Guns n' Roses, CCR, The Eagles, Led Zepplin, James Taylor, Joni Mitchell, Bonnie Rait, Fleetwood Mac, Copeland,New Amsterdams, Prince
