This post is a tribute to:
Bicycles belong out there on the streets and so do graffiti (Italian plural of graffito). Only those that are willing to really be part of the culture and life of a city such as the bicyclist and the graffiti artist deserve to be recognized.
The city belongs to them. The rest are only borrowers...shy expectators. If you want to really be a part and contribute to the life and fabric of a place, then step on its streets, walk its paths, bike its trails, watch its art, smell its aromas, buy locally.
How can you call yourself a Bostonian if you don't know what Boston smells like? You should know what the manhole covers look like in your city; after all, you are paying for them. Taste your place, be part of it, leave a mark, feel its beat; every place has one. I'll leave you with this collection of street art: Hopefully your town has some interesting graffiti art like these:
