The Impossible Journey

This is an interesting 8 minute clip, and it correlates with my previous post. It's a short story of an artist named John Bonner who is attempting to commute from the North Shore (a Boston suburb) into Boston. The author does this with a sort of dry, tongue-in-cheek sort of way...it's rather entertaining. I originally found this clip at Commute By Bike; here's a link to John Bonner's Site.

west of Boston is typically ok, Cambridge area. But man north is a royal mess, if you are in anything less than a car and even then!!! its literally the worst concert jungle I have ever seen. you are lucky if there are side-walks let alone a shoulder and forget about bike lanes. it obviously can be done, but i would be more likely to fit pontoons and a propeller then go all the way around. we got a ways to go for sure...
