update on Brian's canoe/bike ride to the great northeast

every morning


Gotham City



this was a big day. Brian's canoe was ready to be flipped!





I think if Brian ever wrote a book, the cover would look something like this.


time to check in with the peanut gallery






Tim Taylor?


Max's ditch got some 'crete work which made it 100x's more skateable.



found out about the Pennypack Trail in the northeast so Sunday I decided to check it out.








the Northeast Park. I have a love/hate relationship with this place. remember when it was 2 slant ramps and a garbage can? shit was kill.

after a couple of wrong turns I found the trail head




spot check


lunch break at the end of the trail

heading south back toward the city


a few miles out

after a few more miles I missed a turn and ended up in the Badlands of Philly (look it up) which really isn't the best area for a lone, white boy to be riding his bike through.



can monoliths be horizontal?

spot check. who's got it frontside?




Built to Spill at the Troc was great
