In the meantime, here are some pics from my NYC Affiliate Tour. Check out CFBK's descent into the Pit of Doom (otherwise known as "stairs to the basement"). Seriously, you should all consider buying one of their cool "817" t-shirts so those boys can install a proper safety rail. Or at the very least, keep the mutant alligators that dwell on the shores of the poisonous lava pit below well fed.
CF Virtuosity's new spot is also pretty sweet - no alligators (or doom), but their pull-up bars are set up in front of these huge windows. I had an audience of two businessmen during part of my warm-up. I hope they were saying, "Look at that hot chick rocking those ring push-ups!" but I suspect it was more like, "Her face is really red and she appears to be suffering from a progressive loss of motor skills... should we see if she needs help?" Good times. (All Virtuosity photos courtesy of Keith Wittenstein.)

The infamous Rusty Railing
In case you can't read it, the lifter is falling into a pit of spikes and poisonous lava. Which has to be some kind of building code violation...

As close to free-standing as I'll probably ever get.

Just for good measure, I'd also like to point out that you have misinterpreted Greg Glassman's intended use of photos.
According to Crossfit Code, Article 7, section G, when posting pictures on your webpage, they are supposed to be of your clients, suffering happily together in a community.
I won't ask you to change, as I know that you are too far gone to be saved.
God rest your soul. In GG Christ's name we pray. Amen.
Hey MB- I've been behind on your log. I've been trying not to get banned from the CF message boards. Currently they've suspended my privileges. It's a big mess over my support for the Gay Crossfit thread. My best friend and workout partner, Keith Walker, who is gay, actually got banned along with many others. I'm very disappointed and am getting tired of being censored (my comments about the thread were mostly in PMs).
Funny thing is my name now appears in blue marking me as an Affiliate. Who knew?
Safe travels to Jersey.
PS I want one of those hot CF Brooklyn shirts. Don't see a link on their page.
So, the front of the shirt says HARD. What does the back say?
"AS FUCK"
You left out an "S", Evelyn. :)
Thanks for all the props, MB. I am looking forward to this weekend. I am in desperate need of some Kettlebelling.
Well, I'm glad our pit of doom is so loved!!! Have fun at the kbell cert this weekend. I need to get some kettlebell help as well.
Christin, if you want a CF Brooklyn shirt, email me at jalgera@gmail.com and we'll try to get you hooked up!!
