Note the unique headgear worn by the guy below (despite the ungodly heat). Face-mask-man managed to cool himself off by dousing himself with a full bottle of water occasionally.

Expected: When you think Smoothie, you picture a good ole' fashioned fruit-in-blender deal, right? Yup, me too!
Note, this just happens to be the Mixedberry smoothie from my favourite Third Avenue Juice Bar.
I dream of this drink. If I could only have one drink for the rest of my life, this would be it...

Unexpected: Cycling meets fruity goodness.
Healthy fruit treat + reduction of the carbon footprint = double goodness!

Expected: This is a dog town. Signs asking owners to "curb their dogs" abound, politely requesting that animal owners take control of their pets.

Unexpected: Some folks don't leave it to the dog owners, appealing instead directly to literate canines. The words on this bike cover are written at dog height. Genius.
