CitySmart: A Super Late Revisit
Remember the CitySmart packet from a few years back? At the time, I made a
final list of items that I find practical, useful, and plan to keep/use for at last a short while
Here’s what I actually did with them:
“watch for bikes” mirror sticker
Tossed. Don’t need it on my own car since I do watch for bikes, and never did get the opportunity to slap that on a mirror of a car that nearly killed me.- CitySmart Reflective stickers from two different packets
When you turn some of them upside down, they look like robots: Green ID holderHonestly I have no idea where this went.
Walk Boston East Cambridge Map, for next time I visit my friends who live in that neighborhoodWho am I kidding: I hardly ever walk when biking is an option.
- 2010 CharlieCard discount book to flip through at least one more time (and then probably give away)
I did flip through it one more time, and ended up using the CharlieCard discount for a visit to the MIT Museum. It’s a good deal! Getting Around in Cambridge map, plus distance guide overlay
Also tossed. I wanted to use this for when we have guests, but my guests end up riding with their host (me). Seeing as I know my way, the map is moot.- Cambridge Police Department Bicycle Registration Card
I registered my bike! …although I can’t tell you where I stored the registration info at the moment. Coupons for: Menotomy, Broadway Bicycle School, The Bicycle Exchange, and maybe Urban Adventours
All expired before I got to use them.- Rubel’s Boston Bikemap
This is the best. Always have at least one copy of this. CitySmart keychain
Tossed?CitySmart pedometer
See #4.- Patch kit
Yes! Can never get enough patch kits between my civi/SCUL bikes.
BONUS: the tote is definitely still in heavy rotation as one of my go-to lunch/grocery bags.
Here’s their official report. I’m discovering it very belatedly (lesson: life continues when blogging goes on hiatus).
