It's like a gym membership...

Even though I don't live the urban life, I've always wanted to be one of those people I see on bikes stopping at Starbucks or peddling down a brick road to the local farmers market. Plus, biking could be a great alternative exercise since it's too hot and muggy to run (or even walk for that matter). Well, a potentially great alternative. Until the novelty wears off.

So last weekend Dave and I went out to look at bikes. Dave was a little more into the process than I was (Me: Ohhh! This one is cute AND it has a basket!) since he used to ride BMX when he was younger.* And of course, this included testing the floor models in the sporting goods section at Target.

No bike is safe.

We'll probably need helmets too.

*Much, much younger.
