New bike...
Mar. 7th, 2006 03:16 pm..has now been delivered. In a very large box.
It is the very same as the stolen one and having now completed what little assembly was needed (adjustment of handlebars and attachment of pedals, plus fitting the holder for the lock), I am now going for a test ride.
And hopefully, whatever deity is in charge of bikes will be satisfied with the (unintentional) blood-sacrifice of a two-inch scratch on my hip, acquired while completing the above tasks. Or do you need to have an actual fall to properly dedicate a new bike?
