Your Morning Sift

Good morning.

Yeah, it's Monday. Sorry.

Here's a look at what was posted in the SoFla blogosphere as you slept.

A- Ipanemic has a bunch of new photos posted for your review.

B- Miami Bike Scene takes a good look at the functionality of the new bike rack unveiled this weekend in Peacock Park in Coconut Grove.

In these photos below I demonstrate the best way to protect your bike using a U-lock to this style of rack. You don't really have many options. By locking the rear rim & tire (inside triangle of frame) a thief cannot remove the back wheel or steal the bicycle. If you're using a larger U-lock you may get the rear wheel & seat tube. The front wheel is still subject to theft but a cable in conjunction with a U-lock can help prevent that. You can also secure a seat post using a cable.

C- Mood Vane provides us a quick look at the performance Totem Pole gave at Radioactive Records in Lauderdale last Thursday night.
