mode of transportation

Wednesday, May 24, 2006

The past few days I have been riding my bike to and from work (except today, it's raining). It saves on gas and it's a little bit of exercise. I can't help but feel like a little kid when I'm riding my bike. Going down a hill right before my apartment I feel myself revert to age 10. I want to lean my head back and enjoy the breeze. And just like when I was that age, I want to take my hands off the handlebar but don't because I'm too chicken. Or maybe I'm just afraid of what my mom would say...

A couple years ago I bought this bike on a garage sale for ten dollars...a girl's Huffy that was decked out in purple and black speckles. Last summer Josh did a custom paint job on it and now I love it. I think I should name it but can't think of anything fitting.

I've definitely been enjoying this beautiful weather that is perfect for bike riding. I can't help but think that I probably look like a goon or a drunk that lost her license. I don't care though, I just smile, wave to people and hum "Bicycle Race" by Queen to myself.
