Claudia, The Tangerine Machine
I've had a month of riding to work and I have to say, I *heart* my bike.
I've also been customizing her a bit:
They are parts from the Daisy Cruiser that I love but which isn't the bike for me. Due to a little accident by the shop, I have a Daisy seat coming too (my white seat is ripped a bit and they're replacing it. And, I still think she needs fenders. I would love daisy ones but apparently Electra doesn't sell them (though I'm asking), so white will d0.
It's silly, but also fun and a great ride. Townie: Built for comfort and speed!
I heart your bike too!

How cool - an orange bike! So nice to be able to bike to work, and do it in style!

Once upon a time (when *I* was your age), girl bikes came only in blue, while boy bikes came in red and black.
If orange was an option back then, I might still be riding!

So cute! My husband works as a mechanic in a bike shop and the Townies are soo popular. Everyone says it's the most comfortable bike out there. My husband's parents even bought a pair, and I want one too! I love all the cute customized details on yours.
