I Love Riding in the City
NAME: Armando Quiros
LOCATION: Natick, MA
OCCUPATION: Frame Builder
What was your favorite city to ride in, and why?
Hartford, CT as a bicycle messenger. The city is small and everything was a sprint, which is my style of riding.
I do like riding in Boston a lot!
Why do you love riding in the city?
I love riding in the city for the thrill of it all. I was getting paid to do it before so after a few years it was work—a job. I retired from messenger work a few years ago, now the adrenaline rush of riding in the city is my pay. The anticipation of it all. Your heart rate going as you get into your zone where you just know what things are going to happen, but you are ready. After getting through it, avoiding it, you tell yourself “Ha I knew it!” and ride away awaiting the next street challenge.
