Bikes in Bodegas

I really enjoy this sign for a multitude of reasons:

  1. The mere presence of this sign implies that people bringing bikes into this Valencia and Duboce bodega was either frequent, obnoxious or both.
  2. The owner turned letters into arrows.
  3. The owner clearly had to amend the sign with an additional “THIS POINT,” hinting that cyclists didn't understand the sign the first time around.
  4. Blocking the lottery table with bikes is a-okay.
  5. This store seemed to have a surplus of tallcans.  Coincidence?  I think not.

The store also seems to have a surplus of the most commonly locked up items at Walgreens.

Are bodegas any liquor store old liquor store? Or are there some qualifications? I only thought they were stores in NYC.

BRO ITS TOO MANY SWEATY DUDES ON FIXIES GETTING PBRS! THEYRE RUINING THE CHODIE BRODIES!

What’s a bodega?

of course! A bagpipe from southern France.

Based on recent news items, I think that “no cars beyond this point” might be an wise addition to the signage.

The liquor store at 26th and Mission was super nice about me bringing my bike in…
