What do you enjoy about Downtown? The food, and the cute and little ‘mom and pop’ type restaurants; the ones that aren’t chains.
Where do you like to explore? I love the open view at Giant Coffee and riding over to the library. I love going to the D-backs and Suns games.
Why do you choose to ride your bike around? Because then I don’t have to pay for metered parking and I can get a tan while I am riding!
What is the biggest plus in riding a bike rather than driving? I don’t have to worry about having a few drinks then getting home.
