vibram boy and i each have our own electra bicycles. we bought them about 2 years ago. vibram boy's is black. mine is white. his. and hers.

his and hers

i love our bikes. they have the cutest bell..... sounds just like you'd imagine it to.............. "brrriiinnngggg bbrrriinnnngggg" they are the amsterdam classic model. of course, it's because they are literally modeled after old dutch commuter bikes.... pretty much exact replicas.

this is an old bike............

this evening was a lovely 90* outside, with a breeze. really, it's amazing how nice 90* feels when you are use to the 98*-100*'s! :) so, we rode to oliver's fine foods.......... a super cute local gourmet grocer. we ate burgers ...... primal style.......... no bun, just meat, cheese and jalapenos. and lettuce, onions (and tomatoes for vibram boy). oh! and bacon. mmmm..... everything is better with bacon.

have i mentioned how much i love bacon?

then, we just rode around. like kids. for about 40 min.......... up and down the neighborhood streets, in circles around a parking lot.

it was a good moment to share........... we made the decision to go outside. we could have stayed inside. ate dinner at home (which normally IS the good decision) and watched hulu.com or a dvd ..... you know what i mean? we went outside to play instead. not a hard, crazy workout. just play. but we were moving and i think that is today's lesson............ go outside. play. move. run. jump. ride. laugh.

another closing thought from curly girl............

happy monday.

p.s. this is my mission statement.
