I didn't forget about this blog, I have just been super busy. I may have made Dean's list this semester so obviously that is a big time suck. I also have not been as active on the bike as I would like. Things have changed a lot however.
I recently started working at Freewheel Bike in Eden Prairie, this is huge for me. It has restored my love after a dreary winter and spring. I am still working at the coffee shop but that will end soon. I am biking there today actually, hopefully it doesn't rain tomorrow so I can bike to the bike shop too.
My girlfriend is still on the hunt for a new bike. We are looking at the Surly Ogre, she is afraid of the drop bars and I don't really blame her. That or she is looking at the Novara Safari from REI. Both of them are nice steel frames but I feel like the Safari would be more enjoyable to her, as it is lighter and probably much easier to ride.
