Goodbye Just B Yoga bike rack, so sorry to my cyclists

Dear Just B Yoga cyclists,

Your parking is gone.

It just up and disappeared. All 900 pounds of metal that was bolted into the sidewalk.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

NOTICE SOMETHING GONE?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

LOOKS SO EMPTY OUTSIDE

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ALL THAT’S LEFT IS ONE LEG.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

SEE THE SCRAPE MARKS? BOLTS ARE STILL IN THE SIDEWALK

THANKS TO GABE PURDY WHO MADE THE RACK WITH LOVING CARE AND KINDNESS

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

AND THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO FOUND IT OF BENEFIT THIS SUMMER. JUST B YOGA WANTS TO SUPPORT HEALTHY, CARBON-FREE/CARBON-LIGHT TRANSPORTATION. PARKING IS ESSENTIAL FOR OUR CYCLISTS.

THAT POOR RACK WENT FROM VANDALISM, (read post on vandalism) TO BEING HIT BY A SEMI TRUCK TO NOW BEING STOLEN. IT HAD ENERGY ALL ITS OWN!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So what’s next for Just B Yoga? Will we replace it? Who knows? For now we shall digest this situation of the first vandalized, now gone bike rack. We’ll send up a prayer to it, hoping that it’s serving someone well. And we’ll embrace impermanence. Yes?

YES.

Peace.

B

  1. I feel like I could cry real tears, but I used them all up on important stuff. Lucky we live in Michigan, where there are lots of trees & fences to bolt your bike too. Viva cycling! Our cause shall prevail.

    1. Karen, I thought of you and John and Jessica immediately as regular cyclists to the studio. Know that I’m working on some alternatives and if you have to bring the bike in the studio, so be it. Thank you for your amazing support of yoga and tai chi! You’re my one of my few ambidextrous practitioners!

    1. Char, thanks for your kind words. In the grand scheme of things, it’s just “stuff”. Peace. B

  2. So sorry.

    How about installing racks that allow the bikes to be hung (and locked) on the side of the building? Or…suspended from the area under the deck?
