Rosie

Last June I was on Nedra's Blog Cactus Needle Quilts, when I saw a post about the Cruiser Bike her children bought her for her birthday.  I just fell in love with it and went on a mission to find a PINK Cruiser Bike.
How much do you love Amazon?!

Well, her she is...
Rosie
Her basket has a handle and will come off it we decide to stop for a picnic.


It is a Schwinn back brakes, no speeds, just riding.




When I was a young girl. I had the same bike in metallic aqua. Friends would sit on the back. Friends would sit on the handle-bars. I could even ride no handed!

BUT,
Let me tell you, you know that old saying
"it's just like riding a bike"?

Well, not for me! It has been years! I have black and blue marks all over my legs. I did not fall but gee whiz it took a while to get the hang of it.  The first time I kept swerving to the right. I thought it was because of my poor eye site. Oh contra!  the handle-bars were not tighten! They pointed to the right!  My sweet Hubby rode his bike all the way home to get the tool to tighten them, that was my first ride.

Here I am, now able to ride this beauty and have a ton of fun!

(Psst, that is a short, not a skirt)



When my sister saw the bike she asked me if I bought it for exerciser  Come on, I said, I bought it because it was
PINK!!
Any health benefits is just serendipitous!
