Morgan First, 24, Kenmore
Profession: MAP Boston guidebook entrepreneur
Style: Fun and flirty: denim halter dress, brown leather belt, flat boots.
Bike model: Yellow-green Dutch Gazelle JollyBike with hand-painted flowers.
How long have you been riding around Boston? Two and a half years.
Where she rides: To brunch in the South End or at the Other Side Café, to sell her guidebook at the South End Open Market.
Any places in the city you avoid while on a bike? "Lots," First says simply. She rides through parks or along the Esplanade whenever possible.
Secrets to biking in a dress? She's been known to hold down her skirt with one hand.
How to stay clean? Fenders, an enclosed chain, and a coat guard. “I’ve never gotten messy,” she says.
Must-have accessories? A built-in lock. She’s waiting for a blue coat guard and wants “a fun-looking bell.”
