Hell on Wheels

We are tough.  We ride bikes.  No!  Not those kind of bikes!  I'm talking preppy cruisin'.  Not leather and pony tails.  Duuuuh. 


Last year, as a Birthday surprise for moi, Mr. D and I got cute vintage inspired cruisers.  Now that warm weather is finally here, it's time for us to pull our little two wheeled babies out of winter storage and start riding again.  :)  Last summer we rode these beauties all over town.  So...if you happen to see our bikes parked outside a local establishment, make sure you pop in and say "hello." 


Most often you will find us parked outside of Orange Leaf, Josie's, Suggins, Kroger (when we only need a few items), Buddy's and Starbuck's.  You can usually hear us coming from a mile away, because someone (ahem, ahem, Mr. D) likes to ring their bicycle bell like an obnoxious six year old...and then laugh uncontrollably every time.  (I bet our neighbors hate us.) 


Perhaps we should consider joining the Lexington Hell's Angels? 



If only my basket were big enough to hold McGruff, our little furbaby.  We tried once...but he's just too long.  I guess we'll just have to get him a doggy side car this year!  Note to Mr. D: McGruff needs a side car ASAP.

 
Look for us scootin' around town...or better yet, join us!

  7. Those biking pictures are some of my all-time favorite pictures ever. Fingers crossed your adorable photo shoot will woo the bf a little closer to the idea of buying a pair of bikes for the two of us! :)

  11. Ha that sidecar is hilarious, definitely would be a great find. I am missing the bike this season although I find myself having difficulty maintaining balance while standing still with this preggo belly so I'm thinking the bike would be just plain dumb at this point. Next summer though, bike and buggy!

  12. What a great blog! I came across it while looking for a bicycle sidecar for my own dog. You wouldn't happen to have any information on that photo you posted? I'd greatly appreciate it.

    Thanks!
