the other day there was a lot of racket outside my apartment in stuyvesant heights brooklyn. it was, what i learned from a worker, a milling machine on chauncey st.
here’s the flatbed truck that delivered the machine.
and here’s the machine in action. the milling machine tears up asphalt from the road and deposits it into a dump truck.
this morning i decided to take a trek out into the city center of lyon to get some information about the velo bicycles that you can rent from stations around the city, and to explore a little bit. it rained this morning and the light was superb so i brought my camera.
i took the D metro from Valmy in the 9e arrondissement to Bellecour, a big red dirt square. in the above picture, you can see Fourvière in the background (the church on the hill).
the square is home to a tourism office where i asked for a map and a gay guide, and found out that there was no way to rent the velo bikes without a european credit card.
