New Bicycle

This morning we bought me a new bicycle :) We are quite the bike flippers these days, hehe. We decided that I would need some gears if I wanted to bike to work (since there are a couple of fairly steep hills between here and work). The commute is only about 3 or 4 miles and I really want to be able to ride to work if I wanted. Yesterday we went around to some bike shops and we found a really cool bike at Performance Bikes in Oceanside. The one we decided on was a 2011 Schwinn Sierra 7 (it has 7 speeds). It's a hybrid bike, which means it is a mix between a cruiser (still sitting straight up with the cool features, like a wide seat and fun handlebars), but has a few speeds and thinner tires. It is "coral" in color. I really like it and all of the cool little accents (like the coral color on the handles and seat, the internal wires, the snazzy gears). The weather is supposed to be in the 70s and 80s this week, so I think it is a PERFECT week to try out the commuting.

Check out some of the pictures we have taken so far:
