My new toy
As a relatively new freelancer in illustration, money is not something I have a lot of. This past weekend, I threw caution to the wind and broke the bank: spent some money on a new mountain bike. My old bike was just that...OLD! I bought it just after graduating college. Everytime I took it to the shop, it would cost me $75 - new brakes, tires, etc. It was a entry-level bike in the first place costing me only $300 brand new. Instead of dropping that much money on repairs, I spent the extra cash and bought a new one. It is a TREK 4500 - the next level up from my old bike. It's still an entry-level bike but perfect for the amount of riding I do. I also bought some lights for the night-riding I plan on doing!
Yeah...another way to hurt myself!!!!

Nice bike!
Maybe you can get some tips from Good Ben on how to hurt yourself.
Oh I'm FULL of those types of tips! That's a lovely new toy ya got there. Too clean though. We can take care of that as soon as you take off those newby reflectors!
Nice ride! Now we need to BLING it up, so that it will weight about 200 pounds and then you will get a real workout. Also artists are poor, so thank you Lucy for buying Shen some new wheels.
