My new ride

Here's my new ride! A lovely red beach cruiser! Don't you just love those white walls! I picked this up from my beloved CL, along with another bike for the boy. Two new-to-us bikes for $100! The boy and I are planning to repaint his bike because the colors are too girly for him.
I don't know what bike design genius thought of making the spring pink, but he (it could only be a he) should be slapped. That shitty blue is bad enough.

I rode the cruiser to work today...and boy, is my fat out of shape! There is one small incline that felt like the Everest summit. I made it up most of the way, but fortunately an intersection and a red light kindly gave me an excuse to quit panting and rest a bit.

I need to adjust the handle bars and it could use a paint job, but right now, I'm happy with the cruiser the way it is! All it needs is a basket and some streamers!

Bye Mom.
