My New Bike

I got my bike today! After shopping around and comparing prices, I went back to the little downtown bike shop on my lunch hour and purchased a Marin Kentfield hybrid or "City Bike." I test rode it and really liked the feel of it. It's pretty slick looking, too. The photo above is the 2009 men's Kentfield; I got the women's version in blue.

In additon to the bike, I bought a safety helmet and a bike rack for the car. Hubby is going to refurbish a freebie bike we've had in the garage for a while so we can ride together at some point. And, with my purchase I got a water bottle, bottle cage and a T-shirt (again, it's the little things that make me happy!). So, I can't wait to hit the neighborhood on my new bike. Hopefully, the rain will hold off this weekend and I can try it out.

Happy Friday, everyone!
