Next thing you know that bird in the bush'll be worth millions!

Dude, riding a bike is so completely not just like riding a bike, man. I can barely get on the thing. Hoping to make a start on fixing that this weekend, providing she doesn't get nicked from our lobby first. I'm hoping the U-lock will hold her until I get to Asda tomorrow to buy a chain to attach her to the stairs. :D

(Yeah, she's definitely a she - Raleigh Vixen, metallic purple, purdy. I'm thinking I might call her Ziva, but I'm open to other suggestions...)

Yay, bikes! I only started properly cycling in September; a friend of mine gave me a crash course when I visited her in Germany for a week, but it was only a couple of months ago that I started cycling to university and to the shops. I can now cycle with a rucksack of food on my back and a carrier bag hanging off the handlebars without a horrific accident (touch wood), and if you've seen my co-ordination you'd know this is a tiny miracle :D

Anyway, it's ace.

Also, hello - I saw you on my network page and thought you looked interesting.

Hee, I'm hoping I can get to the 'able to cycle' stage, although considering that 'able to walk', with my balance, is kind of in question, we shall see.

And hi back! I looked at your profile - with the linguistics, and the tea, and the beautiful stained glass on the icon - and I kind of blinked at the fact that we'd never met before. You seem like an AU version of me! XD

Sometimes I actually feel more able to cycle than walk. That's bad, right?

Hee! I read your post on gay as a pejorative and decided that I needed to subscribe to you :D
