I was pretty pathetic srsly: first on Friday my light came unclipped from my pocket at some point when I stopped to drunkenly hike up incredb. tight jeans, and I lost blinker. Also I had to figure out how to strap clutch purse AND Ulock together under my saddle with one (1) bungee. Jeans chafed and were awful.

Bought new light Sat & attached it to bike. Wore mini + tights. Put all my shit in jacket pockets (requires wearing a baggy-ish jacket, though). Ulock still strapped under seat BUT it dislodged light in the middle of Metropolitan so I had to stop and go back in traffic for my blinker. THEN later a wad of cash managed to work OUT of pocket and fly in into the street, so I had to stop again, in traffic. Got home w/o further incident.

FINALLY ON SUNDAY I took the 3-speed in a pencil skirt and heels and had no incidents. Had to wear another baggy jacket, though.

i was eyeing up those racks (LOL BOOBS) the other day! i had spent too much time on the rivendell bike works website and was sort of disgusted with my ride. i sorta can't wait to get my schwinn fixed up and fitted out to carry basically everything.

Rivendell: Made by elves.

tho a huge fan of grant peterson while he was at bridgestone (and an owner of an rb1, mb4 and mb1), rivendell is uber-fredly stuff.

and i appreciate the aesthetic, but the premiums too high.

I BOUGHT A CRAFT BASE TOP (AGAINST MY BETTER JUDGMENT) BUT IT HAD THE WIND PROOF FRONT, WHICH I LIKE AND BACK FLAP...WHICH I ALSO LIKE...IT WAS EXPENSIVE, WHICH I DONT LIKE.
