The commute continues, it was a bit chillier today and called for a jacket. It was supposed to have rained all day and luckily it was dry in the morning so I set out and got a dry ride home too, thank you very much! Tomorrow is supposed to be sunny so I'll shoot for it again and I aim to get in a proper ride after work.
I put a wireless bike computer on my new bike and I like it. Still need some fenders, a bell and a back rack but I should be good to go after that. I am wanting to get white fenders but they are proving hard to find. Today the manager of the LBS said he would consider painting a set for me, that was a great offer and I'm likely to take him up on it. The bike is white trimmed in brown accents on the handlebar grips, brake levers have brown inserts, the pedals have brown inserts and so is the saddle. The brown wicker basket fits in nicely. The bike has some dark charcoal lettering for the logo and model name. So far only black or chrome fenders are available and I am hesitant to introduce another color. White fenders with brown pinstriping would set it off nicely. The other option was to go with black fenders with brown and charcoal pinstriping. Hmmmm...
