LAfixed summer swapmeet & BBQ is one of my favorite summer events EVER!!!!!!!! Carmageddon couldn't even hold us back (although there was no traffic whatsoever). Some of the City Grounds crew took the train up from Long Beach and rode the painstaking ride up to Elysian Park next to Dodger Stadium. LAfixed swapmeet is picnic style with good people, good food, good Mariachi music, and plenty of booze! I love the LAfixed community, they've been a solid support group for CG and we can't thank them enough! I managed to forget my camera, but i did take some iPhone photos!...

Gotta show some love to Angelo over on the East Coast! I've been 'following' his tumblr for awhile now, and I have to say that it's in my top three 'original content' cycle blogs out there.

Combine that with my love of photography and there you have it — a personal blog about re-discovering New York City on two wheels, and snapping photos along the way.
