The Simple Life: Trying to find a bike that fits just right

I’m fussy about my jeans. Gotta fit just right. The illusion of fitness and style is important, eh?

I’m also fussy about getting the right bike for touring Wortley Village. When popping over to Home Hardware for a bag of nails one must look their best.

I saw a 3-speed Road King (sold at Eatons) at the Dorchester Dump the other day but it needed too much work.

Because of the lateness of time of year, it looks like I’ll have to stick with my 12-speed Miele for a while longer - but no real hardship there.

Do you own the perfect bicycle for you?

Put many miles on it this year?
