bike-taxi?

more like CH, but on pacific street @ grand there is an seemingly unlocked red bike-taxi just sitting there on the street. what's the deal? stolen and ditched or does it belong to someone? seems odd.

    There was an article a while ago about a bunch of the pedicab drivers living in a building on Atlantic off New York Avenue. Perhaps one of them is visiting a friend?

    That belongs to "Junebug".

    Junebug is a local criminal who is easily identified by his humongous hands. For a couple of bucks, you too can help support his crack habit.

    junebug squatted in my building. he had tons and tons stuff in the building.

    most of the bikes we suspected are stolen.

    i told my contractor to dump it cause we gave him a few months to move his stuff out. but he kept it for him. a few times the site broken into and lost tools. we suspect that he did it.

    he took some of his furniture.

    he never bother to take any of the bikes.

    nyt article on the PH pedicab (which is very often parked on prospect between grand and classon at night, so maybe it's the CH pedicab?)

    he has an interesting story... i often see Junebug on his pedicab and always wondered if he worked in the city and just parked his cab in the neighborhood...

    Junebug terrorized the Armchair Warrior for months. He would board up his place and Juneebug would come with his tools and allow himself back in. This went on for quite sometime, resulting in many visits by members of the 77 pct.

    Is this the person who pooped in AW's building while he was working on it?!

    I see the pedicab on my block (Bergen between Grand and Classon) really often, but I've never seen or even heard of Junebug before now.

    hhhmmmm.... the pedicab seemed so tempting to just take for a ride. karma seems in our favor since the pedicab was perhaps originally stolen by junebug. although, i suppose it's never good to piss a crackhead off. shit, what to do?

    He is really a nice , friendly guy to me and my family and has always helped out when we needed odd jobs done, etc. He is also pretty good at fixing minor car problems too.
