for the love of a bicycle

Since arriving here in the Netherlands I have been having a love affair with riding bicycles around my pretty little town. It is my all time favourite thing to do. I love cycling to class each morning and I love cycling to the beach and I love cycling to dinner dates and I love cycling for groceries....you get the picture that I love cycling places. It's the simple things that make me happy.
Bicycles - I shall miss you. I had to sell my bicycle the other day, since I am leaving and all and since I don't think a bicycle counts as carry-on luggage when flying across the Atlantic.
It broke my heart but it had to be done.
Here are some snaps to demonstrate the love that the Dutch and I share for these two wheel beauties.

Oh...and by the way....my first year of University is officially over. Amen to that!!


 





My beautiful retro peugeot that I recently sold. Awesome I know.

I love bikes! Such a fun way to get around. I wish everywhere in the world could be as bike friendly as Amsterdam. : )
