Collapsable bike proves acceptable (frozen desserts remain excellent)

Late last week the friendly folks at The Hub convinced me that a single speed collapsable bike (a KHS Latte) would make a perfect gift for my tragically bikeless girlfriend. Harnessing the awesome power of collapsability I was easily able to transport the bike to NYC and present it (fully wrapped of course) to its new owner.

The bike’s small frame is clearly adorable, plus it has a back-pedal brake, so riding it totally makes you feel like a kid again. I was a little concerned about the small wheels and lack of gears, but yesterday’s test run was a complete success, particularly since I was able to keep up on my old rollerblades. As an additional throwback to my youth, we rode past my high school, which literally has 20 more skyscrapers nearby than when I went there.

Afterwards I celebrated our outdoor activity with some amazingly refreshing Pinkberry frozen yogurt. I then celebrated the yogurt’s awesomness with some soft serve ice cream. Seriously though, Pinkberry is excellent, but only available in NYC or LA (PVD coming soon?).
