While in Germany, I had a bike.
She was Dutch.
And brown.
And cute, with her cute basket and flowers.
I miss her.

So, of course, I had to get a bike here in California...
Well, I was going to add one to my birthday wishlist
[seeing as I get another year older in August]
But a good family friend told me over margaritas,
[really, what else would it be over?]
that his wife has an old bike she wants to get rid of.
+++
I drove over, tested her out, and shoved her in the back of my car.
I love her, even though she is a mountain bike and will take some getting used to.
[I feel awkward on anything other than a cruiser...]
But, the best part is that she was FREE.
Now all she needs is a name.
Who has some ideas?
She's definitely a 'she' and she is black with hot pink lettering.
'Hard Rock' painted on her side.
She's light, but tough.
She needs a bad ass name.

p.s. maxi dresses + havaianas = mountain bike gear...clearly.
