With tomorrow being Bike to Work Day and all, I called Mount Pleasant Town Hall to ask where I might lock my bike up at the train station, in advance of my heroic ride tomorrow morning. The convo went something like this:
Me: “Hi, I’m curious about where I can lock a bike up at Hawthorne train.”
Her: “I have a Metro-North person right here! I’ll ask him!”
Mumbling ensues.
Her: “He says at the bike rack next to the stairs. But I passed by there today, it’s not there.”
I waited for Plan B.
Her: “OK?”
Me, in my head: No, not OK!
Me: “So…I’m on my own?”
Her: “Yup.”
