I love my folding bike!

[Lydia Leftcoast]

I live in a terrific neighborhood for cycling, with lakes, parks, and paved paths all over the place. However, I also live on the fourth floor of a building, and lugging my full-sized bike up and down the stairs was more than these middle-aged muscles could take. Just the thought of doing that was a real disincentive.

I therefore decided that when my next big job payment came through, I was going to buy a folding bike. This is what I ended up with:




Yeah, yeah, I know, it looks like a kiddie bike, and I have been asked where my training wheels are. :-)

However, it folds down and fits in the trunk of the car. When I want to ride, it takes less than a minute to assemble, and I'm off and riding.

It has three speeds (all I ever use anyway), and the small wheels make it easy to handle on curves and sharp turns.

I've been circling the nearest lake two to three mornings a week, and in a week or two, I'll be ready to add the next lake over.

Wheeee! :7

6. That's great!

I love when I find a THING that suits my particular needs perfectly.

I live in a town with insane hills, aggressive traffic, and narrow streets... haven't biked in years... :-(
