I have a bike now.

Enjoy!!! Hope the weather gods cooperate for your first ride in a while! How exciting!

Riding a bike is like...riding a bike. Who knew?

The balance thing is coming back. The problem with that bike is that the seat is an old, cheap guy's seat, so I end up with weight on things that should not have weight on them. Ow. The seat's also too low (we can fix that), and the brakes are awful. Despite all of that stuff, I'm actually having a lot of fun with it.

I've been taking it out to a parking lot so that I don't have to negotiate with cars while I'm still re-learning this stuff. My only concern is that because of the seat, I don't think I can do much longer than a couple of laps around the parking lot, which has quite a lot to do with why I stopped riding bikes.

andtckrtoo--Yes, the weather gods have been cooperating. It's been beautiful the past couple days.
