My new bike


I just got a new bike. Okay...it's not actually new. It's probably about 20 years old. But hey, it's new to me. Found it on the trusty Craigslist. I went out for a night ride, and goddamn am I out of shape!! These old legs ain't what they used to be.

I am so excited you got a bike! But having a bike isn't enough. You've gotta get it into riding shape (if it's old it probably needs new tubes and tires, and if it's new to you, you probably need bike lights for night rides). And then-- you need some bike buddies. Riding by yourself is awesome, but riding with other people is radical. I haven't driven my car in...I dunno. A week? More? Los Angeles: Better By Bike.

yes, indeed. I'll probably need another hundred bucks for some accessories like a light, a rear rack, a lock, and a helmet. baby steps wellerin....baby steps.
