My grandmother LOOOOOVED my new pink bike (here in her back garden, which she tends to herself.)
She is also quite concerned that I don’t have an odometer yet, as she says she logged a thousand miles on her powder blue cruiser before she felt that it was no longer safe to ride (at her age, she explains, she doesn’t have the balance she used to have when she was younger).
It makes me sad she can no longer ride. I would have loved to just pop on our pink & blue ‘cycles & cruise the nabe together.
Aging really stinks.
