These are the official last commute to work in New York City commute pics. Ever.
This wasn't my official last day of work, because on thad day, I wore flare jeans and felt too dangerous to take pics (in case the flares caught in the chain b/c I just half-assed tight rolled them.)
The X over the bike is where the DOT is changing the paint to make the 72nd street transverse in Central Park 2-way. Hooray!
There will probably be a few more NYC bike rides, but no more to my NYC job!

I still remember leaving NYC, the crazy love/hate of living there, the way it owns a piece of you forever...you are so beautiful on your last commuting day! Good luck on the move :)
ReplyDeletexo,
A
Thank you! It is a Happy/Sad = Love/Hate thing. It makes me glad to see people who left and went on to lead happy lives!
Deleteyour dress is just darling. and i only lived in nyc for a few months in my early 20s, but it was heart breaking to leave...
ReplyDeleteIf it had only been months of living here, I would have been devastated to leave, but five years was perfect, I think.
ReplyDeleteWe're just so excited to get two bathrooms!
Nice pics! You probably gonna miss that in NY. First time that I went there I thought that I'd never ride a bike when the weather was too hot or too cold, now I just think there's no point in driving in NY.
ReplyDeleteI'll miss NYC from your point of view. Hope you continue blogging and shaking things up down South.
ReplyDeleteAwwww I just found your blog and now you're leaving!??? I'm a fellow girly bike commuter who just moved to NYC for work a few months ago, I was secretly hoping to run into you on the streets! :) Haha but I totally understand the love/hate feeling, too. Wish you all the best back home.
ReplyDeleteOh, this is sad. I had to catch up and read your posts to find out why you were leaving, but it sounds like a wonderful opportunity for Matt. I'm going to miss reading about all your NYC cycling escapades, but look forward to reading about your new life in Arkansas.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I can't remember whether I ever sent you the photo of me and Martha. I look yucky, but Martha looks fabulous. I met up with her in Portland, ME at a restaurant called DuckFat. Famous for frying their fries in DuckFat. Notice Martha holding two bags to go. I chatted with her friend briefly who was really nice and took our photo. She and Martha and another girlfriend were road tripping together :}.

NYC will miss you I'm sure... enjoy your last few days in the city!
