Grandma's Bike

Went for a ride on my grandmother's old bicycle today. The weather was perfect for biking around my old neighbourhood by the sea. This area is beautiful in the summer and in many ways I was lucky to grow up here.

I'm not big on the colour orange, but Grandma's old bike can get away with it.

Valborg

Yesterday was Valborg, the last day of April. We celebrate the end of winter with bonfires, outdoor picnics and alcohol. I had a great day with bikes, sunshine and good friends.

Rode down to Bike Line for their HD event on Dr Dan's purple Harley.

Sparkly helmet from Loser Machine. Safety first!

The shop was there too.

Later that day we got a ride into town in style in a '66 Mustang.

Picnic in the park!

Pimping my ride

I've pimped my ride, hoping that it will be easier to locate at the train station and in the parking garage at the new office.

Ain't she a beauty?

This bike is a 1970's Monark that used to belong to my Mother. I brought it back to life with new tires and a new saddle a year or so ago when my other bike was stolen.

I think it needs more stickers. What do you think?
