Given this, I could have kept on riding the bike like this indefinitely.  (No, steel-haters, even a rusty top tube is not going to cause a frame to fail in your lifetime.)  However, since I like the bike so much, and since it merits not only preservation but also an interesting color, I\u2019ve arranged with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.benscycle.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ben\u2019s Cycle<\/a> (longtime blog sponsor and of course the purveyors of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.milwaukeebicycleco.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Milwaukee Bicycle Company<\/a>) to have it refinished.  <\/p>\n<p>Of course, dirtbags are often lazy to boot, and I\u2019m no exception.  So I\u2019d been putting off stripping it down, boxing it up, and sending it off.  But yesterday it finally snowed and so I figured that was a perfect excuse to finally get to work:<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" data-attachment-id=\"14767\"

In theory, the cycle goes like this: get puncture, swap tube, repair punctured tube later and keep as spare, repeat for eternity or until there\u2019s no more room for patches, whichever comes first.  Alas, in practice dirtbags like me just make giant inner tube piles they mean to patch and never do, then they write <a href=\"https:\/\/www.outsideonline.com\/outdoor-gear\/bikes-and-biking\/you-have-too-much-old-bike-stuff-heres-what-to-do-with-it\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">columns about how it\u2019s okay to throw them out to assuage their own guilt<\/a>.  But at least I\u2019m going through the motions.<\/p>\n<p>After I\u2019d finished repairing the tube I headed out to the office supply store, but not before going 20 miles out of my way and heading down to Central Park via the Henry Hudson Greenway:<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" data-attachment-id=\"14782\"

The Smuggies have long pointed this out, and the city was talking about opening charging stations for them on city-owned property, which is kind of infuriating when you consider this is something the food delivery apps should be doing with their own fucking money.  Indeed, so far the only company that has made even a token effort to accommodate delivery people in New York is a popular chain of chicken restaurants:<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed
