I went to NYC once. I rear ended a double parked Taxi on my race bicycle, (backpack large enough to fit a human body in endoed me onto the trunk) Paid as much to park my car as I did for a room, Swam a mile in the Hudson, Placed 22 out of 132 in my age group, Saw Aretha Franklin walking down the sidewalk. Realized from 2 blocks away the parade (with shirtless men dancing on floats in speedos) spllitting the Island in half was the pride parade. Came home after 2 days of 4 days taken off work
