I did, however, have a big wrench and the seatmast from my Bike Friday Pakit that worked great as a cheater bar.

I said mostly healthy because I don’t think anybody thinks of broken collarbones or Alpha-gal Syndrome as healthy things. I’m the guy who broke his collarbone and my pal Nick is the one who got Alpha-gal Syndrome. Alpha-gal is something I’d never heard of and it’s not some high-status chick, it’s a disease like Lyme Disease that you get from a tick bite. There are a hell of a lot of ticks in the woods.

After graduating from FIT, he went on to have a successful 26-year career in menswear for two world-renowned luxury companies in New York City. Eric has been riding bikes of all kinds for over fifty years. In 1994, Eric raced in the Baja 1000 off-road Motorcycle Race, one of the most prestigious off-road races in the world, attracting competitors from six different continents annually.

I’m not sticking around to see if that guess is right, I’ll be long gone with my bike by the time you read this note. I’ve got to get on with my life, I suggest you do the same with yours.
