Ride Your Bike...

17 April 2008

On my way back to the office after lunch, I rode my 'new' 80's era vintage Schwinn cruiser. It's the old coaster brake style. Very cool. . . pics forthcoming. Bekah has a matching lady's cruiser. We plan to paint the town red with our matching red cruisers.

Yeah, we're THAT couple.

And it's all thanks to Craig and his wonderful list. I love Craig's list.

Anyway, on my ride I saw no less than 5 people I knew, and I was able to stop and talk to them.

If I had been insulated in my car, all I'd have to show for my commute was 5 courtesy waves hello, a couple dollars burned out of my gas tank, and some calories left unburned from my belly.

Instead, I rode my bike to work, and was able to actually have 5 real conversations.

You may be thinking: "Well, Drew, you live in a small town...that's different."

Is it?
