get a bike

My father calls to say that he and his girlfriend just bought new bikes, so he wanted to give me the one he bought last year. So now, it’s on my porch.

Now I just need to get into the habit of using it. I haven’t had a bike in more than five years, and haven’t regularly ridden since I was little. I think as much as anything, it’ll be a matter of getting over my skittishness of riding on the road. I’m going to make some baby step goals around using the bike, and not expect it will be a real commuter thing all at once.

so getting one in Copenhagen (or at the very least oxford!). the time has come to complete this goal. by sept it shall be ticked off! now shall i get a helmet too?

yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay i got a bike… woooooooooooooo i can now coast between the woods and the city… weeeeeeeeee

Like in January or February – been biking often ever since! :)

Just bought my first bike.. now I just gotta learn how to ride, and then have some fun.. =] =]

Over the summer Daniel and I both got new bikes. We didn’t have a lot of time to enjoy them, as a rainy winter has been less than inspiring, but since spring is upon us we’ve already gone on a few rides so far this season.

While my office is being renovated, I’ll be working from a different building and my hope is that I’ll be able to ride to and from work. I’ve done one trial run and it was taking a lot out of me, but I’ll try it a few more times so that hopefully by the time we’ve moved locations I’ll have the stamina to do it without a problem. I’m looking forward to it!

I want some kind of sweet kick ass bike. crotch rocket, harley, I don’t know i just know that I want one!

but not now..no money!

A couple of weeks ago. Old one from the 40’s, no gears or handbreaks… And I couldn’t possibly love it more!

Well the trek bike I had gotten for cheap was….cheap lol. So I’m going to go for practicallity now and buy a nice trek bike, and although I would love to learn how to do ground tricks, practicality is more important
