Hot hot pink all day long

Morning - Freshly bathed pink Fyxation tires.

Still morning - I went out for milk, cruised through the Claire's Boutique and got these ultra useful sexy cute gloves.

Biking in these was tricky. I was scared I might knock the hearts off.
Biking in the Westwoods today.

We made it home in one piece!

Open Love Letter to KM

Feb_17th
I saw this pic of you from this morning and I was like “Oh, my god, my bike is so cute!!!” A white bicycle with pink wheels is just the cutest fucking combo and I’m so glad I’ve got you. I don’t think I can ever live with black tires again.

I’m hard on you, and I do resent whoever dropped the ball on your rust-proofing, but I love you so much. I’ve been hard on you and I take you for granted and riding that tester bike has really made me see what a good thing we’ve got going. I really do love you.

It’s shallow to say I love you partly for your looks but that’s the truth. I love your simplicity too. I really am glad I can keep my (usually my right) hand in my pocket and bring you to a complete stop and you don’t have wires and brake handles up front. I really like that about you. I love how I’ve got so much cargo space on  you. We can shop and pick up cool stuff out of the trash if we want to. We can go to Whole Foods and get a couple bags of groceries and it’s all good. We don’t even have to plan ahead. Lock, stop, shop, roll home.

It’s unbearable to think about getting on the bus and/or the subway anymore. I’d rather be with you in the cold and the rain than have to put myself through public transportation.

Stay in one piece the best you can and please don’t get stolen or run-over and I’ll be true to you.
I might even give you a bath this weekend.



Here's the full bicycle/work outfit of the day - outside & inside.

Some sweet rides

Unicorn Bike
Unicorn trike-bike in Brooklyn. I'm jealous. 

Sunday night we went to Brooklyn on the subway and the subway seemed grosser than ever. Matt and I were both repelled and bitched about it the whole way there. There was a slightly homeless smell on both train cars.
The destination was worth it- The Mr. Transman pageant hosted by my local showbiz crush, Murray Hill.

Sunday I didn't ride my bike at all, breaking a major streak. I guess a streak since Memorial Day when we went upstate in a rented little car.

Monday I was back at it- Commuting to work.
pnk pants - pink tires
First corduroy jeans of fall. My jacket is a little boys early 90's Jordache jean jacket.

Today, I was running late and it started to sprinkle on me, so I hauled ass and just took a quick panda when I was riding through the park.

On my way home I saw this sweet John Lennon ride going up 6th Avenue.
John Lennon Pedi Cab

Then I ran into this guy and his favorite thing in the whole world is having me put pictures of him on the internet. Oh, Matt. Our commutes aren't that different, but it's rare that we meet on bikes at the same time and you bet I rang my new Grande Ding Dong bell at him.
I found this guy on my way home

I like how his jacket and helmet match.

One more Sweet Ride I saw Sunday afternoon:
Mexico Guerro Bike

Fyxation Hook-Up Last Day

Awww... Today's the last day to use my JULES discount code at the Fyxation shop.

pink_white_black_only
Kate Middleton the Linus Dutchie Duchess Bicycle of the Upper East Side of New York City is getting really radical and is now strictly PINK - WHITE - BLACK! And she is feeling it!

-But you can buy whatever you want and use that discount code. No color discrimination ;)

Do you love how I did one pink grip and one black grip?

For the Love of Bikes blog did a cute illustration of all the pink goodness they offer.
Super cute stuff! I'm loving my BMX Grips. They're sticky and they're definitely better for my wrists than the ones that came on the bike. I could already feel it after one commute.

I'm also getting myself home from work in record time and I'm not even trying to be a speed-racer.

Pink Friday!

I'm having an amazing Pink Friday! My @fyxation pink tires are here!
New pink bicycle tires and highlighter pink L.A.M.B. bag.

IMGP6433
Pink rainslicker. I got splashed by a taxi from head to toe on my way in to work, but luckily dried by the time I arrived thanks to a simple/lazy, cotton-y outfit and summer temps.

pink_tire_before_after
The major news of the day and maybe the week is that the Pink Bicycle Tires arrived from Fyxation!

mermaid_skirt
I stayed up late making an outfit to wear to The Coney Island Mermaid Parade, but I can't go... this year. I'm going to use it for Halloween and keep it and it will be ready for next year's parade.

Some pinky-purple outfits from the other day. The dressy look on the left was deemed impractical for the ride ahead of me. The shorty outfit won and was a smart decision. I rode way downtown, attended a benefit concert and then a night-ride home.

Kate MIddleton Linus Dutchie in Pink Fyxation Tires!
This ride with all this crap on my handlebars & basket was my first with the pink tires. I'm in love!

And I'll be changing the grips and seat asap! I want this black saddle and the pink grips to match the tires. Kate Middleton is going to get abducted she's becoming so sexy!

PS - You are smoking crack if you think I'm going to even try to have a Brooks saddle for a week in NYC.  Unless you want to send me one for free.
