Yesterday, Andrea and I tried out Freewheelin — a free bike sharing service that  helped us traverse downtown. No bus fare, no carbon emissions and no aching feet.  We just signed up, selected a bike and rode to our hearts’ content. Faster transportation = more reporting.

We also scored free DNC t-shirts, a fanny-pack (!), chapstick and wet-naps at the Freewheelin tent.

Finally, Rob returned to the office this morning with a ladies baby tee from “smackdown your vote!” that proclaims “apathy sucks.”  And Andrea found a lovely massage kit and a sleep mask somewhere between the Convention Center and our office — both will surely come in handy as she recuperates from the convention madness.
