Folding bicycle
|
I've always liked the idea of folding bicycle.
Back in Russia I had one called "Sal'ut"("Salute"). When our
family went to summer cottage, I could fold Sal'ut , put it on
a train and take it with me.
Now, in U.S., folding bike makes sense once again - because it can be easily kept in a car trunk. Not long ago I spotted one called NorthWoods in a DAMARK catalog. The price was extremely reasonable - $79. They couldn't say, how much assembly would be required, but I went ahead and ordered anyway. I have it now and all I can say is "IT RULES!". It's always with me. Desire to ride usually comes on impulse - and now I have a chance to fullfill it right away, since the bike is in a trunk. I put it together in a minute or so and then explore the neighborhood around the building where I work. Northwoods bike is red, small and cute looking. It's also easy to pedal and extremely maneuverable - much more so than the road bikes that I've ridden in past years. I am enjoying every minute of riding my folding bike!
