<ul>
|

|
|
<li><p>a small black bike i had when i was around five. maybe a huffy?
|
|||
|
|
it had training wheels, and a thick foam pad velcroed to the center of
|
|||
|
|
the straight handlebars, presumably so that if i hit my face or chin on
|
|||
|
|
the handlebars i would hit foam and not metal. this piece was
|
|||
|
|
fascinating to me, and i would constantly remove it and replace
|
|||
|
|
it.</p></li>
|
|||
|
|
<li><p>some bike i had, possibly the same one, when my family moved in
|
|||
|
|
the first grade. before the move, my dad was trying to teach me to ride
|
|||
|
|
without training wheels and i couldn’t do it. after the move, i hopped
|
|||
|
|
on that bike and rode it like i’d been doing it all my life.
|
|||
|
|
magic.</p></li>
|
|||
|
|
<li><p>skip to high school. a white mountain/hybrid bike that hung up on
|
|||
|
|
hooks under the back porch of my parents house. i remember riding it
|
|||
|
|
maybe once? the tires eventually rotted due to disuse.</p></li>
|
|||
|
|
<li><p>a small blue bike that i bought at a bike store in san diego. way
|
|||
|
|
too small for me. i used to ride it to work. my first bicycle adult as
|
|||
|
|
an adult. kicked off a (so far) lifelong obsession. i don’t remember
|
|||
|
|
what happened to it.</p></li>
|
|||
|
|
<li><p>a blue schwinn. craigslist find. love of my life. i ended up
|
|||
|
|
plastering the frame in all kinds of stickers. got me through many years
|
|||
|
|
of year round commuting, and lots of trail riding. took a bicycle
|
|||
|
|
mechanics course at the local co-op, and endlessly wrenched and tinkered
|
|||
|
|
on this thing. it was eventually stolen right off my front porch. years
|
|||
|
|
later saw somebody riding it down the street, and then saw it in the
|
|||
|
|
bike cage in the parking garage of my office building! no mistaking it
|
|||
|
|
with all those stickers. left a note on it wishing the new owner luck,
|
|||
|
|
and hopes that enjoy it. left my number in case they wanted to get a
|
|||
|
|
coffee and bond over our shared experience. never heard back from them.
|
|||
|
|
so it goes.</p></li>
|
|||
|
|
<li><p>a giant orange fixed-gear single speed. craigslist find. a real
|
|||
|
|
fixer upper. i was kind of scared of this bike. it was slightly too big
|
|||
|
|
for me (a first!), and the frame had a slight dent so it wobbled at high
|
|||
|
|
speeds. stolen from outside a restaurant downtown where i left it locked
|
|||
|
|
up over night.</p></li>
|
|||
|
|
<li><p>surly crosscheck. black. the first store bought bike since that
|
|||
|
|
small blue one, and my first “nice” bike. heckin good bike. stolen right
|
|||
|
|
out of my backyard. followed by a bikeless period of mourning.</p></li>
|
|||
|
|
<li><p>blue gitane. current bike. craigslist find for ridiculously
|
|||
|
|
cheap. kind of worried it was stolen, but what can you do. helped me get
|
|||
|
|
through the pandemic. because of a back injury, this bike is probably
|
|||
|
|
currently being ridden less than any other bike i’ve had in my adult
|
|||
|
|
life. but i still love it. it is a good bike.</p></li>
