Me and my bike

Presenting the leopard basket! I actually bought the basket at Walmart for like $3.99. It had all those funky pink and purple plastic flowers on it (got it in the girls bike section, apparently they don't have any for adult bikes, thinking that adults don't use baskets???).........any who.........I ripped the pink and purple puff flowers off and had some leopard material (surprised?) so I made and edge around the top and bottom of the basket for my personal touch. Also lined the inside of the basket with the leopard material. Waa Laa! Now it is mine :) It holds my keys and camera and anything else that I might need on my journey. Click on the picture for a better view. Now that the weather is nicer I plan to try and ride it just about everyday when the weather permits.
Here I am, my bike and I. It was a great day for a bike ride...........around 65 degrees, sunny with a slight breeze. Cher and I went down the street into the new subdivision. It was great!

Finally- what I've been waiting for....pictures of THE bike WITH basket!!! YEAH! I remember discussing the bike WITH leopard basket on our (Tricia, Cher, Rex, and my) trip back to Blacksburg after our Cascades hike in October!! I remember hearing about all the "fun" things that you had that were leopard. I got to experience the "leopard" when I vacationed up North in December! Oh leopard! =)

Love you all!
