Confessions Of A Recovering New York City Bike Messenger, Entry #1

9/15/09.
1:31pm.
62nd and 1st Avenue.

60-something guy on adult-size kick-scooter, crossing in crosswalk on green (in gruff voice):

Me, on track bike, weaving through traffic and crossing against red, passing 4-6 feet in front of above (in chirpy, sing-songy voice):

"I'm a really nice guy, actually!"
