The hottest trike in town.
My trike started having problems before last fall... the chain kept popping off when I rode it, which is positively TERRIFYING when you're in the street with cars, let me tell you. I also loosened the seat to raise it and then it did NOT want to tighten back up, it has been out of commission for MONTHS, leaving me to walk a mile into town to work EVERYDAY instead of just sitting on a chair and gliding down 6th street in mere minutes.

BUT! Next week I will have enough money to get THIS:



I am so excited. 3-speed trike!!! I can't wait to speed around town again!!! My whole life has exisited within one mile since my previous trike broke down. But I am getting this badass shit and donating my former trike right back to the Bike Project from whence it came. I will go to any grocery store I want, I can make several trips into town without crying about it! I can carry more than one bag of groceries without dying!

I also think I will be WAY more confident on the road with this one too. Just because I won't be so scared that it will fall apart and crumble beneath me, and I will be able to go faster. Plus, all new confidence as a trike rider. I love it! FUCK learning to ride a bike! I am 28 years old. I have made it this far.

I finally have it budgeted out. I have no idea why I have waited so long. But oh well, my woes are nearly over. And I REALLY can't wait for spring.

Aren't three paycheck months nice? How did I not see this one coming?
