Flags, boombox, biking to work

Fifty-three year old Gregory Johnson of the Philmont section of Philadelphia has been riding and outfitting his bicycles ever since he was nine. I spotted him braving heavy traffic in Northeast Philadelphia on a cold fall day with American flags affixed to the rear of his bike waving high in the air and when I pulled over to chat with him saw that that his bike is outfitted with a boom box radio, toO. He was on his way to the Willow Grove Mall several miles away where he does landscaping and handyman work.
