Mom's bicycle

I told Matthew I would go on a bike ride with him once a week, and he's holding me to it. Even in New Jersey.

Dad has several very expensive bikes, but he doesn't trust me on those. So I took Mom's, which looks like this. She uses it to bring back groceries from Trader Joe's.

I considered removing the crate and bags, but it would have been a Big Deal to remove them, and a bigger one to put them back on. So I rode it as you see it, with the bags brushing my heels on the upstroke.
