Pink Peugeot

I was walking around with my friend Mike after brunch a few weekends ago; I'm sure you can imagine why this bike caught my eye:



Look at the little pink orange and yellow diagonal stripes on the seat tube. So sunny.

Popsicles Please

Spotted this across the street while wandering around waiting for late dinner companions.



Makes me want watery Popsicles all over again.

Nice Italian.

I saw a guy walking this bike from a coffee shop across the street a few weekends ago, and selfishly hoped he would lock it up nearby so I could take a picture of the beauty.



Isn't that pretty! My friend Ashley told me that "Basso" in Italian means low to the ground. I tried to get my head around the fact that this beautiful color combination now automatically makes me think of Prilosec (thanks a lot, branding), because it really is nice and does not deserve that association.

Post Yakitori

Forgive the terrible lighting.



Saw this after a big yakitori dinner. I love the greenish paired with metallic pink drop handlebars.

Spring in downtown NYC!

I spotted this lovely thing while grabbing coffee with Bud this afternoon. It made me want to make a yellow cake with pink icing.



I'm on the lookout for a bike again. Three things about my current bike: that it's from the 70s, that it's a cruiser, and that it's a girl's bike make it next to impossible to carry to and from my walk-up. So it's permanently in my apartment now. What I need: a single speed (fewer gears: lighter, also more nimble for quick streets-of-NY decisions), and a boy's bike (good for hoisting onto my shoulder when carrying up stairs). I hope I find something before it gets too hot to commute.

Long weekend

This was kind of great to see on Memorial Day Weekend, streamers and all.


Look at those pink pedals!
