Showing Off My New Ride


What, you don't have a pteranodon on your bell? 
Biking around here in the summer is a no-brainer. Not only is it scenic, cheap, green, and great exercise, it actually makes for a faster commute than driving or taking public transit. Plus it's really fun (albeit a little sweaty). 

After the disappearance of my bike (rip), I was lost. Thank goodness for friends like Becky. She heard of my plight, and offered me this gem that had been collecting dust in storage. A quick tune-up later, and it. is. amazing. It's lightweight and super fast (not to mention easy on the eyes). We have fallen in love. And, thanks to a new U-lock, I'm not letting this one get away.

  1. Nice bike Brie, love the basket on the side. Will you be riding it to school? I wanted to ride mine to school but my bookbag is so freaking heavy! And that is without my computer.

    Oh and incase I forget, Happy Birthday

  2. Why, thank you! I don't know about riding it to school- it's quite a haul. But I often ride it to work, for groceries, and pretty much every chance I get.
