I've got a 3-speed Velorbis Churchill Balloon, with some changes. I bought it without a headlight or dyno hub, that lowered the cost quite a bit. It's in great shape, but the fenders have taken a few…Continue

My girlfriend Janine and I just moved to Beecher St in July, with one dog. We have just added a second dog - two related German Shepherds from Fidelco, the guide dog foundation in CT.

I'm a computer nerd (Senior Systems Engineer) downtown, I was a part-time barista for years, and I like bicycles.

Here are some of my locations on the web:

Dutch-style 3-speed, $1000 OBO

I've got a 3-speed Velorbis Churchill Balloon, with some changes. I bought it without a headlight or dyno hub, that lowered the cost quite a bit. It's in great shape, but the fenders have taken a few scratches since I bought it (the perils of small apartments.) Also, the Schwalbe balloon tires that it came with have almost no clearance to the stays, so after a couple miles there was rubbing. The dealer threw on a smaller, but still seriously-comfortable, pair of tires and I've had no problems…See More

"I'll have some time in the morning. It might be a good time to clean up the sprouting forest along the garden fence, too, if we've got the right tools. It's been a while since i looked in the toolbox in the park."

There's a new dog on the block

My name is Matt Finnigan, and I'm new to the neighborhood. A Connecticut native, I moved to Somerville in 2008; my girlfriend Janine and I wanted to get a place together in Boston. In July, we moved onto Beecher St, with my 5-year-old German Shepherd, Wilma. If you are a regular at Beecher Park, you've probably seen us.



When I lived in CT, I had been a foster parent for Fidelco. They are a guide dog foundation near Hartford - the only in CT, one… Continue
