2 Weekend Events

Saturday, September 19th I'll be doing this silly, but fun workshop at the Conflux Festival. As you moight guess, it involves Census Tracts. Check out the Conflux festival regardless. It seems to be less silly and fun, and more political and kind-of-serious this year - maybe it's the election year.

Saturday, September 26th I'll be leading a four-corner bike ride through New York City. Blurb follows:

Have you ever wanted to visit the Northern, Eastern, Southern, and Westernmost points in the five boroughs in one day by bicycle? If so, this ride's for you. On Saturday, September 26th, we'll be setting out to hit all four corners of NYC, by way of all five boroughs and two New Jersey counties.

We'll be riding approximately 100 miles, mostly on city streets, so if this is your first time on a bike in New York this ride might not be for you. At the same time, expect a less-than-blistering pace, a supportive group, and plenty of rest/refuel/see-interesting-stuff stops along the way.

We'll leave from the middle of Bushwick Park (now officially known as Maria Hernandez Park) in Brooklyn at 8:08 AM on the dot (not 8:11, not 8:32). Disregard the 8:05 starting time claimed by this invitation: Facebook thinks time exists only in five-minute increments.
