I love my bike

Sorry I havent written in a few days things have been hectic. But I have managed to put some miles on the bike every day. Above is a picture that is from one of the bike paths I've been riding on.

Ride a bike to work

Starting a new trend...I'm 29 years old and I'm tired of paying high gas prices in order to just run to the store. Last week I went out and bought a brand new bike. I wanted something comfortable. I wanted something reliable. So i decided on a beach cruise. I also wanted a bike that was made in the USA. Since most of our money for oil goes to foreign countries, I thought I would pick a bike that was made in the USA and would also help reduce my dependency on using my truck to go on short trips to the store or over to friends homes. I went to several bike stores here where I live in modesto california. The bike that impressed me the most was at a bike store called The Bike Shop. The company that makes the bike is NIRVE, they are out of fountain valley california. Perfect. So i purchased the bike. Its a 3 speed beach cruiser and I love it. So far I have put about 15 miles on the bike. Its a super comfortable ride and I couldnt be happier. lets see 15miles in my truck thats a gallon of gas. which is about 3.29 where i live. If I can save five dollars a week in a year thats $260. Not bad at all...plus I get some decent exercise that I wouldnt be getting if I hoped in my truck everytime i needed to just run an errand. Since purchasing my bike my sister, and brother in law have also purchased bikes similar to what i bought. Two other friends have as well. Without thinking about it its helped create a little bond between us all as we all go out and ride bikes in the evening as well. Who knows maybe you will see hundreds of us cruisin through town kinda like a motorcycle cruise but on beach cruisers.
