Sounds like it's gonna be #FortGreene, #Gowanus and #Greenpoint vs central #Brooklyn
Didn't get in my birthday skate, but I managed to roll all three days of Memorial Day weekend and posted 90+ miles, especially enjoying Monday afternoon's jaunt to #RedHook and #Greenpoint. The thigh muscles just about died on me toward the end of Sunday's roll, but although they whined a bit on the uphills on Monday, they hung in there. Woot.
This mural in #Greenpoint #Brooklyn lists the names of African Americans killed by Police in the United States, ending with George Floyd, whose murder on May 25, 2020 sparked global protests that raised the visibility of the #BlackLivesMatter movement.

β§ artworks related to the Black Lives Matter movement β§
Many artworks related to the Black Lives Matter movement have been created. These works are seen as a direct tribute to those who have died or more broadly to the movement. Often the pieces are created in the streets as to be more publicly visible. This mural in Greenpoint, Brooklyn lists the names of Af...

#Greenpoint: time for #Krupnik at #retro #Polish Capri Social Club
Out for a 50k roll on Wednesday night, although not UWNS. Visited #Greenpoint because whoa, do we love the view of Midtown from Barge Park. But such a fun roll overall, because after 6 fricking months, we put on new wheels! (PS, We β€οΈ Hydrogen 110s)
Tonight: been wanting to check out Tired Horses monthly thing at Troost for a while. Straight jammy improv by some sharp young'uns. I might be the oldest person here by over a decade, maybe two. This is the kind of shit I would've eaten up in my youth, so feels good. Definitely won't be the last time I make the trek to Greenpoint. Easing into a potentially deep birthday week...

The fact that this low volume intersection that cuts across Manhattan and Leonard at Engert doesn't have a crosswalk is madding. It is across the street from a park/playground. Today, an SUV driver had to wait 5 additional seconds so my son, nanny, and I could make a direct crossing. #Greenpoint

Tonight: flight lands > car home > drop bags > quick bite > on the subway to Greenpoint > walk into Warsaw to the just-begun set from the motherfucking Osees. High on my can't-miss list, never not the best. Crushing it on night one already. Earplugs in and giddy up!

Tonight: so far went Skinny Dennis to some ridic tacos and now currently at Warsaw in Greenpoint for Hania Rani. Totally awestruck as she moves from piano to keys to synth, classical, indie and electronic, composition and songwriting opening up into longform improvisation.
Looking forward to seeing where this goes...

Let's hope it sticks this time. McGuinnes Blvd is a nightmare.

Tonight: first up, rainy day trip into deep Greenpoint for the vinyl release show for Seawind of Battery at Fire Talk Records. If you haven't heard the album yet, please do. Gently mutating guitar loops into the cosmos... + lap steel. Excellent.
Tonight: got a free ticket for the Babies at Warsaw, so my plans changed and I'm checking out the Babies at Warsaw. Kevin Morby's old band sounding pretty great. Just straight rockin rock and roll circa 2010.
