{Number 15 on the list of Ways to Know You Have Bicycle Culture: Your entire wardrobe can be classified as ”cycle wear”. Especially those stilettos from Christian Louboutin or your new double-breasted trenchcoast from Tiger of Sweden.}
Today I biked in Bitten jeans, an Old Navy coat, Banana Republic sweater, and Poof! ruffled tank top.
Shannon asked what kind of bike I ride, imagining a really cute cruiser. I do have a cute pink cruiser, which I adore. My cousin, Katie, got it for me and I brought it to Davis all the way from sunny San Diego. It is fabulous for lovely weekend rides.
On a daily basis, however, I use a Jamis commuter bike, which has gears and definitely gets me around quicker.
One bike for style, one for swiftness.
I think I would kill myself if I biked with heels on. Good on you. I go for bike shorts with padding myself!

I like the idea of Louboutons and biking...

I have 2 bikes too! I have what I would consider a "cruiser"--it is pink and old-fashioned looking. And then I have a lavender Schwinn 10-speed that has been with me forever. Bicycles--you have to love them!! I miss mine--I don't ride in below zero or snow!

How cute are you? Who took your picture?
I wish that I lived in a city that was more bike friendly... California has perfect weather for biking.

haha, I totally get the bike culture thing. I wardrobe definitely revolves around being comfortable and biking appropriate.

I am so incredibly jealous! I wish I could either ride a bike to work or walk to work. But with the amount of snow that we get here, it's just not possible.
