It's Actually a Carlton. Le sigh


In response to my own blog post, My bike is actually a guy bike. Why it has the word "Catalina" on it is beyond me. But I came across this info while my BF's father was helping me put air in the tire. He pointed out to me that Girl Bikes have the top bar slant just a bit so we could just throw our legs through the bars, instead of over like one would do with a Horse.








Also it works better if you decide to be cute and ride with a skirt.
So I have a boy bike which I am slightly too short for!!!
However, I love it none the less and in Kirke's Junk Shop, as I call it, We found this metal thing that goes over the back wheel and becomes another spot to carry things on. I already have a front basket on it.
♥ So cute ♥

It's Still a Raging bitch to get up that hill. poor 3 speed. My goal is to be able to get up that hill and all the way up to Brown Road. then there is the challenge of going down new port. such a lon long slant of a road. It's only 9.9 miles!!! I can do that!!!
