Team mates Spinner and Barbero visit New York City
When your Italian team mate shows up at Woodward camp you kind of feel bad for him. He came all the way to the USA and only gets to see some amazing ramps. Mike Spinner decided to drive Alessandro up to New York City to visit some museums, hang out at various toy stores and show him the Brooklyn Banks, a popular spot in BMX.
Next week Mike Spinner is taking his first flight over to Europe. He will meet up with Alessandro in France for the FISE contest. When Americans come to Europe they have things to complain about. Let’s give Mike Spinner a list of European habits that will shock him.
-No ice cubes in drinks
-No airco
-Euro currency (how much is that?)
-”Sorry No speak English”
-Wine and Baguette for lunch
-No tipping
-Beer for the kids (no 21+)
In fact it’s not that bad. Just different. After experiencing China last week I’m sure he can handle France.
Au revoir.

Actually, sounds alot like Florida where Spinner comes from (other than the lack of AC, and the ‘official’ drinking age)

Some French people speak English! Sometimes we put ice on beer. The weather is like 95° F here, so don’t take too many sweatshirt
.
Currently 1 euro is $1,35.
You forgot to say we have a lot of weird expressions.
A la semaine prochaine.
