Spring has sprung, and the wheels of my bike are itching to hit the pavement. I have had a plethora of vintage bikes in my day, all thrifted or dusted off from the dark corners of my grandparents garage; All but my most current, stolen or misplaced (thank you Madison). I love a traditional vintage cruiser, they are so stylish, comfortable and lady-like. The down side is that they are really heavy and require a lot of up keep. So I have been looking for a lighter model than my current. So far I think this means going with a new one, but as bike season is upon us, I thought we could take a look back at some of my old favorites.

| Negligence on my part, this bike was left on my porch, unlocked. |
 |
| lost to the elements and the incredible amount of work it needed |
 |
| The metal bar I had attached this to was unscrewed from the ground. |
 |
| This one was locked to a wooden railing, which was sawed through. |

| My current cruiser, still in my possession. |

ReplyDeleteOh dear, I can relate! I have had 3 bikes stolen in the past 3 years... And it always happens when you decide "okay, now THIS is the perfect bike".
ReplyDeleteAt least you keep finding cute replacements!
A bicycle in the living room? Hilarious!
ReplyDeleteI know "hounds" is it time to laugh about it yet?
