Meet my City Bicycle



I got a bike! Okay, so I was one of those city dwellers who loathed bike riders when I was driving (they come out of nowhere and I swear I've almost hit one with my car at least five times). The boyfriend had to do a little convincing. He told me we could ride to the farmers market on Saturday mornings and to summer dinners at our favorite outdoor patios in our neighborhood and that we could take the bikes up to the lake house where the scenery is gorgeous (and there are hills, which means getting my butt in shape). So, we went looking, and looking... and then, I saw this beauty. It was love at first sight.

  3. So cute! I'm trying to get more into biking, but all I have is an old mountain bike I got in high school. Yours is much cuter. :)

  5. Having a good bike makes all the difference with riding around the city. My husband just got a really nice bike, and I've been stealing it regularly to ride around town. It's so fun! Enjoy your new (super cute) ride!

  9. Just came across your blog and wanted to say hi. Hooray on getting a new bike :) Trust me - you will love it! I am also guilty of not being "bike friendly" but I think it's because Houston is not a biggest fan of pedestrians and riders. Any who, it will be really nice to ride when the weather is perfect!
