Tonight, Becky finally did it. She bought a bike.

She’d been struggling between the Giant Suede and the Raleigh Gruv. West County Cycle had called just before her knee surgery and said that the Gruv was in. Tonight she said she wanted to go check it out. She compared both the Gruv and the Suede, and landed on the Suede. I’m thrilled!

Now, I know she won’t be riding in a big way anytime soon — healing her knee is job one. But, once it heals, she’ll be able to join me on some fun rides through the parks and the neighborhood, and that is a wonderful thing!

Her bike is actually very cool, with a flat black finish and all black hardware. She has nicknamed it “The BatBike”. Somehow seems very appropriate!
