We are struggling getting items for bargains because we don’t have all the time in the world. It is the fast vs cheap! We need to spend some money to get it done faster. We have found a few items at the local dump but we also ended up buying things that don’t work.

Every day we go for a ride, my legs are pretty sore but I am getting more confident. I haven’t been on a bike regularly in over 20 years! I do get nervous as it is all new. Rowan was following closely behind me and a bit further out on my first attempt up a hill on a very busy road. A lady yelled and beeped at us to be in a single file. Rowan promptly yelled back a few words that should not be repeated. That is the first and last time so far that we have had a dickhead driver.

Number one on my list of accessories are tassels. Rowan says I will get annoyed with them, but I don’t care. If I now have to live with a sore butt and legs I am going to do it with tassels. I find a $6 bargain at the warehouse that are sparkly and every 5 year olds dream. I did think about noisy spoke beads but they will drive us nuts.
