I like to ride my bicycle.

I have a beach cruiser. I acquired it when I first got here from a friend whose previous room mate had abandoned it. It was pink and covered with rust with a flat tire, but it was MY dilapidated pink bicycle. I haven't had the heart to remove the rust (or maybe the desire to invest elbow grease) but I fixed the tire and my brother Mike was good enough to help me replace the rusted chain. Now one of my favorite things is riding it down to the pier and back or up to the grocery store for whatever fits in my basket. I feel like a kid again riding around pretending my bike is a horse. It is great.
