I would like to publicly apologize to my bike. I was a little harsh
on it the first couple days back from my trip to the Netherlands and I
have much appreciated my Trek hybrid the past couple of days. I wouldn't
have been able to make it up Portland's abundant hills without it's
many gears and light frame. Lucky to say, I fell back in love with my
bike because it is the kind of bike I need to ride around in Portland,
the way that I want to ride.
When I'm biking to work, the only reason I want to take my time is so that I don't sweat so much. But I still want to get to work as quickly as possible, just like I want to get home to my kitty as quickly as possible. My hybrid allows me to do that and I don't think my little Dutch bike could get me up some of our hills the way I want to go up them.
I would still like a
Dutch bike for those leisurely rides to dinner or to the park. Maybe I
can save up for one and paint it pink :)
