Hooray! Spring is finally here. The last 3 days have been warm (in the 50’s) Dry, and sunny. Perfect.
(Me out with A from work on his last night in Berlin – yes, that’s a drinking hat I have on there!)
What’s funny is that I bought a new bike last Wednesday (see above)- and that’s when it slowly quit raining and started warming up. It’s a great bike, and I have been dying to ride it. Amusingly enough – by Sunday, it was officially bike riding weather – and yes, darlings, I am doing my best to use it to and from work.
Thursday found me with the new bike – peeling off the decals and spray painting it a bright lime green and an iridescent purple/green reflective color over the original gray. Best I can say is that I made it as drippy and bad looking as possible – to help prevent it from getting stolen like the first mountain bike here was.
The New Bike:
I sold the old bike (it was a girls city bike which means it was made for transporting the groceries and etc.) and got another mountain bike. Yeah – you know me… pop the curb, jump the pothole, slide down the stairs… and keep on biking – in traffic no less. (Thank God for helmets, right?)
So, if you see some chick in red jacket, sunglasses, and riding a bike like the one above while jamming to one ear of MP3 player tunes – yeah, it’d most likely be me….
