Reflecting

Okay, I promise I’ll come back next week. Am just finishing reflecting on my new book and passing it on to my advisors.

Just start. And grow from there.

Too hot to leap today

No more mushy bananas 🍌 while #TravelingAtTheSpeedOfBike 🤸‍♀️🚲❤️ @pocampobags

#BrooklynBridge on @citibike

This scared me (note: I used to do this regularly when I was in my 20s). But a sign on a building visible from the #BrooklynBridge said #YouGoGirl. So I did. If something is scaring u, I want u to know #YouGotThis. Just. Keep. Pedaling. @bycs_org #bycs @peopleforbikes #peopleforbikes @bikeleague #bikeleague @citibike #citibike @nytimes

I picked this up at a #LittleFreeLibrary while #TravelingAtTheSpeedOfBike and just finished it. Very sweet and inspiring. #YearOfYes @shondarhimes

I took this message personally while trudging across the #BrooklynBridge on #CitiBike. #YouGoGirl

View from #MARTA bus 132 of where the too-narrow unprotected bike lane on a 35-mph road (typically exceeded) is currently being built. I seem to be the only person who finds this unacceptable and who believes #YouDeserveBetter. 🤷‍♀️ #GutterOfFailedImagination

Keep the #RollingWave going all over the world 🌎. (Shown: #GardenCity #NY #Schwinneola)

God bless the person in the corner, quietly strumming, anywhere, everywhere. Thank you, sweet strummer. The world 🌎 needs u, now more than ever. #streetphotography

The brilliant new #LittleIsland in #NYC is a reminder that we do not need to settle for the gutter of failed imagination in our shared public spaces. And the best way to get there? By #TravelingAtTheSpeedOfBike! #HudsonRiverGreenway @citibike hub a block over

It’s up to u today. I choose to take another #LeapOfFaith and #TrustTheJourney

Hanging at the hotel bar near LaGuardia after a canceled flight ✈️ (after we were already on the runway!), having avocado 🥑 toast and an IPA and things could be worse

The house where I grew up. The pool where we flipped off the boards. The fields where I played 3rd base. The place where the scary tunnel used to be. Where my school used to be, before the condos, before they (recently) removed the #PlayStreet sign. My church, before I found a different way to take a #LeapOfFaith in life. #TBT ##TravelingAtTheSpeedOfBike #Schwinneola TravelingAtTheSpeedOfBike.com #TrustTheJourney #1970s #bikeboom #TheBoomWhereItHappened #antonnewspapers #MineolaAmerican @newsday @mineolachamber #BikeNative

#TBT Am currently at the exact spot where my 85-year-old dad (now 88) took the cover photo for my book, #TravelingAtTheSpeedOfBike (u can see his shadow on the book cover photo), with that same #bike 🚲(#Scwhinneola), which I keep in the basement of his condo. 100% of proceeds from the sale of TravelingAtTheSpeedOfBike.com/book (available globally 🌍) are used to teach #PedalPowerWithPattie classes to more women and girls (who are underrepresented in our public spaces, including here now, where I grew up riding a bike). #Mineola #TrustTheJourney #RollingWave #bicyclemayor #BYCS #bikeleague #peopleforbikes #BikeNative
