I Have a New Bike

25 June, 2015
Posted in: Dublin, Ireland

The first fancy bike I got when we moved to Dublin in 2008 was stolen. My sister gave me her old bike to replace it and it served me faithfully for a number of years but it was showing signs of wear and the back wheel was buckled by opportunistic thieves (who didn’t get it) and straightened (by a passing French tourist who took pity on me) and still wobbled. And the gears were shot. And it was designed for a flat country (it was my sister’s bike when she lived in the Netherlands). And I cycle every day around town and I felt it was time. Here is a picture of my new bike; taken partially for this blog and partially so that I can use the picture to try to retrieve it if stolen.

    It is a fine bike indeed. The rack looks solid enough to carry a couple of children, always useful. x

    Thank you very much. Am really hoping that I don’t need to use this photo, if it’s stolen.

    Hooray for a new bike. I hope you have also made a note of (and registered) the frame number.
