Happy Spring! Spring arrives this week. Below is the Breezer Midtown 1.5. We love the features of this bike: disc brakes, 2×9 wide range drivetrain, bike path friendly tires, easy to mount frame. We received this bike in sizes small, medium and large.
Bird flu-just a reminder. This weather is perfect for a hike or stroll in a park or your neighborhood. H5N1 bird flu is widespread in wild birds worldwide and is causing outbreaks in poultry and U.S. dairy cows with several recent human cases in U.S. dairy and poultry workers. The best prevention is to avoid sources of exposure: Enjoy wild birds safely from a distance-no hand feeding. Do not touch sick or dead birds. Avoid collecting bird feathers.
