Y’all, I bought a bike. Which might not sound weird, but I am honestly the least willingly-mobile person ever. The closest I come to moving myself from one place to another is to climb the one flight of stairs from the parking garage to my office. And that’s only if there is no available parking on my office’s level. Every so often I’ll forget my

That is one of the coolest fucking bikes I have ever seen.

Isn't it awesome?! I was browsing through all the different kinds, and none stuck out, until I hit the "touring" bikes, which I guess tend to look more like the old-fashioned types I rode as a kid.

I love your bike and your commentary was slightly amazing.

Hee, thanks!

where is the video of you riding?

[shannonknits]

Thankfully it is nonexistent. I'm sure the stopping and getting off the bike part was entertaining, since my toes barely touch the ground at a complete stop, and I tend to hobble around bowlegged until feeling comes back into my ass...

You named your bike? I love that! :D It looks very Balthie-y!

I name everything, it's a weird habit XD

I am thoroughly amused by your post.

My ass usually only hurts the next day after first long ride after the winter, and that passes soon.

The bike's awesome, it's one of the types I'd like to have. Keep pedalling for health o/

Heehee, thanks! I went out again yesterday and my ass is doing well, so I think I'm set.

And btw, I love your icon. He's such a pretty man.
