Introducing…SPARTAN
Most of you know that I shipped my road bike out from Scottsdale which has been great to have on long rides. But, I also wanted something to just move around the city and not worry so much about someone stealing it or if I had a big crash, I wouldn’t spend a bunch a money on a repair or (yikes!) a replacement. So…I found her! Spent an afternoon hangin in an awesome vintage bike shop down in the West Village. The folks running the place were so helpful and fun. I eventually found THE ONE and even though it’s worn (it is vintage!), already I can tell it’s a great bike. I realize the “S” on the seat is for “Schwinn” but I’ve decided it really stands for SPARTAN, just the way life should be. 
And of course I couldn’t resist this cute little bell! Which by the way is very much a need here in the city when you are dodging delivery bikes, children, dogs and people. Oh, and of course the zillion cars, trucks and cabs! Especially those crazy cab drivers!
