by Nick Place
Last and not least, thank you to the Bangers for their friendship and lace-out passes, and to the ice hockey Rookies for endless adventures.
And to my brother, Shonko, for ‘Frankie’ (short for Frankenstein), my city-cruiser bike made entirely out of parts of other bikes and still my transport of choice around my hood.
If you’re not yet convinced, I fully recommend bike riding as a way to get around your city. The air feels great on your face and you notice the details of the streets. Long may your wheels roll.
