    I bought a new bike today!

    I bought myself a new (to me) bike today! I picked it up about 7 miles from where I live and cycled it home. I love it! I can't stop going downstairs to admire it. It's an Azur Oma and is incredibly heavy but lovely. Did I mention I love it?

    Not sure how to get the picture to appear in the post but here is a link:

    No name - I never names things. I had a hard enough time naming my pets never mind anything else!

    It has a Brooks saddle which is something I'd looked at longingly in the past but balked at the price. It's so comfortable to ride.

    I love it! That bike makes me think of picnics, baguettes and cheese, and rose gardens. It's so romantic.

    It reminds me of the bike I rode in the Netherlands. Very sensible for rainy days too. I hope you have great rides on it.
