I bought me a bike!!

I decided last year that I wanted a bike, but then Stella had to go and need 4 new tires so that put a large dent in the bike fund.  So this year I had the extra money and decided it was time.  I had some help in choosing the bike (thanks Dave!) and ended up with a Norco Yorkville Ladies Hybrid.  

I've only taken her for a small test drive at Mandy & Dave's since it's been, oh I don't know, close to 20 years since I last rode a bike.  I plan to go out on either the seawall or a paved trail in North Vancouver to get used to riding again before I hit the road.

Of course I have all my safety gear: helmet, lights, bell and lock.

Watch out Vancouver!

P.S. I'll post a picture when I have one
