The weather is still so nice...

...I just couldn't go any longer without a bike. So I broke down and bought one. I got it used on Craigslist, only lightly used because the guy's wife was too short for the frame. I must say that even though I paid a little over half of what my old bike cost, I definitely upgraded. I LOVE THIS BIKE. I'll probably say that every time I buy a new one (hopefully not too often). I was lucky the Nagys pitched in on this one (thank you!) so it didn't hurt my pocket too terribly much. I bought it at 11:30 this morning and have been riding around all day doing errands, playing in the park, enjoying summer. It's light and fast! I almost don't want a rack on it to keep the lightness, but carrying all my stuff around in a backpack gets kinda bulky and sweaty. We'll see.
