I took John L's Cycle Truck over to the shipping office today. It's kind of interesting watching people's reactions when they see me ride past with a load like this on the front of my bike. Lot's of double-takes. Especially kids -- they seem to get all squealy and excited, pointing and yelling. Kids are cool like that, they don't hold back.
There's been a stiff wind blowing all day, and I had to ride directly into it for a few blocks. It felt like I was climbing a mountain. I was tempted to turn around and ride the other way just to have that giant sail pulling me along, but I needed to get this bike shipped. This will be the first Cycle Truck in Ohio, which is exciting.
Have fun with it John!

We had the same kind of thing today at West 163rd St & Southern Blvd in the Bronx; the deliveryman noticed my wife on the Cycle Truck and was admiring it. I told him it could carry anything: pizza, wood, even people.
Glad to hear there'll be another Ahearne east of the Mississippi!
