what a nice welcome!

I leave the bike at the bus stop, because the bus lets me off right in front of my building, so taking it on the bus isn't necessary. It's very efficient. Every other time, I've locked it to a post at the bus stop but that one time...

And I know the thief won't love or even value the bike as much as I. The police were so helpful: one told me that maybe someone will dump it so I can always hope.

Anyway, the fenders for my new bike should come today and we'll install the rack, mirror, fenders and clips tonight. I'll be riding my new bike this Sunday when they close the streets on Alki! And then I can ride my new bike to work next week.
