Bikesaurus 2


Very, very excited! After spending the whole day driving all over town looking for a new bike for me, we finally found one in Rivierenbuurt not far from where we live.
It was such a struggle - there were hardly any women's bikes out there and most of them were way too big for me. As one bike shop owner lamented, "These bikes are built for the big Dutch ladies with the long legs." Yeah, thanks buddy! I know I'm short. But this one is the shit. I got them to install a kid seat. And I bought a better lock (about the third of the cost of the bike) and this bike has the rear wheel lock on it. I need to bring it back to get a basket and a better kick stand installed but it's good for now.

Ride like the wind!
