Your Evening Sift

Monday is behind us, readers. Woot! Enjoy your evening Sift.

A- Is DecoBike a good deal? Miami Beach 411 looks into it.

It’s always great to support the neighborhood stores, and Miami Beach has local bike shops with affordable alternatives to renting from Deco Bikes. Not everyone wants to worry about incurring extra charges and docking the bike every 30 minutes. Fritzs on Washington Ave and Miami Beach Bicycle on 5th Street both offer rental bikes starting at $8 an hour or $24 for the day, which is a full 24 hour period. There is a bigger choice of bikes with both beach cruisers and mountain bikes. The deposit is also much less, and the bikes come with locks which Deco Bikes do not. With the bike stores offering 24 hours for $24 compared to Deco’s 8 hours for the same price, the stores obviously have the better deal.

B- I feel very, very old after reading Beached Miami's review of the Jacuzzi Boy's appearance at Churchill's this weekend.

Taking the stage after the Loose Stools, Snakehole, and The Jameses, the Jacuzzi Boys jammed over the din and joyful chaos of a nearly capacity crowd galvanized by a core of limb-swinging, elbow-throwing, beer-spraying, grin-flashing, All-City dudes ...

C- You won't find a single Starbucks on a master barista's top ten places to get coffee in Miami via Eater Miami.

D- Culture Designers weighs in on the Big Brothers Big Sisters ad controversy that was so upsetting to Coconut Grove Grapevine.

According to CP+B, the ‘Under Improvement’ campaign emphasizes the long-term impact that BBBS has, not just on the lives of children, but on Miami neighborhoods. The goal is to raise awareness and donations for the non-profit so that they can continue to positively impact youths’ lives. Regardless of how you feel about the billboards, how can you possibly disagree with this effort?

E- Bark Bark Woof Woof is on his way back to Miami but not before navel-gazing at the airport.

F- Nominate your favorites for The Burger Beast's Burgie Awards.
