Two bikes

I am so excited to be the owner of two bikes.  I love my Summer, Picnic bike with its lovely basket and wonderful seating position but it is perfect for shopping, not for keeping up with Nick who thinks I should be able to go up and down hills without getting off to walk.

I treated myself to Victoria Pendleton, Brooke.  24 gear hybrid bike.

We did a 5 mile test ride yesterday and I now have aches in places I didn't know I had.

The purpose of this post is to show you how every bike should have a means of carrying essentials.  Although, not appropriate to add a basket, I needed to carry phone, ipod, purse, lip balm and aparently I have to have a repair kit.

A bit of left over Tula Pink, Raven Lace, pink zip, three pieces of velcro and Katy's box bag instructions and I was ready to go.
