I Love Riding in the City

NAME: Mitch Ryan
LOCATION: Baltimore, MD
OCCUPATION: Server/Student/Retail Slave

Where do you live and what’s it like riding in your city?
I proudly live in downtown Baltimore, MD. Riding around here is truly unique because of the bike culture. We do everything from gigantic mass rides to some pretty intense allycats. Baltimore is a fairly hilly city with almost no bike lanes so it’s a workout too! Did I mention it’s beautiful here? Being the Quirky City, it’s best viewed by bike.

What was your favorite city to ride in, and why?
As cliché as it may sound, riding through Times Square, NYC was my favorite experience. It was at 2 AM and the lights made it seem like daylight. Flying through streets jammed packed with taxis is purely exhilarating.

Why do you love riding in the city?
I love riding downtown because of the focus it requires. Anything else that may be weighing on you has to be forgotten about as you dodge obstacles and maintain your speed.

Or just say whatever you want about riding in the city…
Baltimore is hot y’all. Watch out!
