Hi Friends! I’m emailing you from a hotel in San Francisco where I’m staying for the Adobe Ambassadors event. It’s so fun to stay in a hotel in your own city (bonus: the ferry building is across the street!). Last night I watched Conan in bed until I fell asleep and didn’t pick up my towels on the floor this morning. Ha! Up to anything fun this weekend? My bike arrived this week! I bought this windsor one above from bikesdirect for cheap and love it so far. Above was a little ride I took earlier this week to test it out, there are so many gorgeous places to bike here! I still need to get a rack and attach my wire basket. Hope you have a great one, here are some links to explore:

I have a similar bike from Windsor and I love it. Mine is the Kensington 8 and it’s been great so far. Not too heavy, handles well enough. The seat that comes with it leaves a little for my tuckus to desire though.
It was so wonderful to meet you and get to work on this project together! I’m also excited to have a new daily read. Love your blog. xo
I am very curious to see how you like the bike after a weekend of riding it. We are moving to Petaluma from the Oakland Hills and are looking for affordable, stylish bikes to ride around town in, and your Windsor looks like a great option.
