hello Autumn



Oh the weather has been so delicious lately. Warm but not too warm. Sunny on some days or like today, grey and overcast with threats of a rain storm, yet the temp out of perfect for a hand knit scarf, velvet blazer over a cotton dress and capri leggings. I particularly love the grey back drop against the orange, red and yellow leaves. The sky is so low and the air so breezy while I bike under a blanket of falling leaves.
New soft green gloves add a punch of color and warmth in the morning.


On another note- I hate to guilt y'all into comments. But I need some cheering and boo-ya's to get me to write up some nice reviews and proper intro to my bikes. Life is good and I am often tired and wonder is anyone still reading? Do they want to hear more? Shout at me.

  5. Like you, I'm enjoying the beautiful fall weather, too. It was mid-50's when I rode this morning before work. Haven't figured out how to ride to work and back home with the days getting so short. Either I can ride in with daylight and home in the dark or to the office in the dark and home in the dark. Not ideal!

    Keep riding and posting -- I'm enjoying hearing of your adventures.

  8. I'm reading! New family bicyclist here, just got my bakfiets last month and toting around my 7 and 5yr old on it :) Reading about other bicycling families keeps me inspired as we head into the winter!

  11. Yay for hand-knit scarves! I've also been loving this weather.

    I've been quite inconsistent with my blog-reading lately but am always glad to see a post from you, my dear!

  14. Hi Eryn- yay for new bakfiets owner! And yay for 7 and 5 year olds. I love hearing about people riding older kids as my kids are older too. I figure I am making trips that I would otherwise make in a car, so why is it wierd that I bike them and they ride.... If my oldest was begging to ride on her own maybe... but she isn't. she prefers to sit and read. and frankly I prefer to not have to worry about two bikes behind me since I am a rather new cyclist I have enough to worry about myself.

    Yay MelsBells. yay for city girls.

    Hey Anniebikes!

    smooch miss gab.

    thanks anon.

    anne- boo on rain!

    thanks for the scarf love- it's recycled Sari silk. It's really soft and was fun to knit.
