Sweet Ride

Napoleon: What kind of bike do you have?
Pedro: It's a sledgehammer.
Napoleon: Dang! You got shocks, pegs... lucky! You ever take it off any sweet jumps?

Not a sledgehammer and definitely not jump worthy.....but, we did score some pretty sweet bikes on craigslist this past weekend. Joe found a vintage Peugeot in amazing condition for a heck of a deal. He's currently geeking out on bike parts, plotting what his first upgrade will be. And me, I scored a Fuji from an outdoorsy/hippie/starbucks lovin' couple who had just recently moved to Cleveland from Seattle.

Riding around on our shiny 2-wheelers for nearby errands and commutes to school will definitely lessen pricey trips to the gas station. And, while we're at it, we're exercising.

The temperatures only skimmed 60 for today's high...hence the autumn-ish attire....in the midst of June.

Sam has that same Peugeot in White! It can be difficult to find parts, but its excellent. I love the stripes!
