Ronn the Tattoo artist




Ronn is one of the best Tattoo Artist in the city, and one bad ass track cyclist. Check him out at Andromeda located in the east Village. If I ever get a tattoo, he will be the artist. I promise I'll get a better shot of him when I ride with him in the summer.

Alice in Wonderland in the park


and Hans Christian Anderson.

York and Crocket


These guys are always riding, it was a cold day. They get the riding in the cold award.

Another regular


Will is another regular in the park, he's always walking his two friendly dogs. See he tried to get them to attack me but they were too friendly, just kidding he was trying to get them to pose for me. Will bikes, skates and runs. He's an all around athlete, not like some of us who either just runs or bikes.

Will

Will with his dogs, Bear and Simon. Bear is the black one.

Tom the chef


He's been away from the bike scene for many years, but now he's back. He's a pretty cool guy.

Strawberry Fields forever



Paul sings and plays his guitar by Strawberry fields. I have seen him there a couple of times.

Allergy season sucks!

I had a hard time breathing during and after my ride today and was pretty much knocked out for the rest of the day.

If I keep riding in the spring, I will end up in one of these. Spring is here, it's time for me to Hibernate for about two months or so.

Hopefully, I'll still come out and take pictures of people in the park during Spring, but I will be on Foot instead of a bike. It's all good. I am looking forward to summer and can't wait till pictures of all the other people that have been hibernating in the winter.

Mike



Mike at the end of his ride took me to meet Imberto, he's the mechanic that put my bike together. Imberto, has the reputation of being the best or at least one of the best bike mechanic in the city. He now own Master bike shop, so for all your bike needs stop by Master bike shop.

Mike and York

York is taking a day off from riding, so he's skating, he fast on those too!

Barry

Another regular in the park, nice fellow. I stopped him while he was racing with the horses.

Dr. Paul and Allen



These guys has been riding in the park for years, they rode about 3-4 hours today.

Willy


Willy, he rides for Toga.

The "Boxer" another regular



This guy has been "dancing" or "hoping" around in Centrak Park for years, he moves around like a boxer. I was going to stopped and talked to him, but he gave me a weird look, not sure if he was going to kick my ass or take my camera, so I I rode away.

LQQk at them go!


Crocket, Marie and Muggy.

That's me

Proof that I was on a bike today.

Niclole

She's a school teacher, I met her about 6 or 7 years ago riding around central. Although we don't know much about each she always say hi to me. She's a sweetheart. She's training for the NYRR half Marathon taking place in Brooklyn on March 18, that's less than two weeks from now. I don't think she has anything to worry about, she ran 11 miles already when I talked to her, and she had another 2-3 miles left. Wish her Luck!!

Cyclists beating a machine





Muggy and Marie was flying and the guy on the motor bike could not catch them, damn they are fast!

Speedy


Ever wonder all the pictures of Big Foot are blurry? maybe he is Blurry!! Either Alan is related to Big Foot or he's just FAST!
