Nice day at the river but no Messabout

I normally post things about the river on the Quinn’s Cove blog. But it turned out to be a nice day. The river is too high for the little boats so the Messabout will be in a couple of weeks.

Bicycle!

I have been longing to get back into riding a bicycle. Jeffrey and I used to ride back when we lived in Turlock and then when we moved to Portland. When we moved to the Gorge, that ended because it was no fun riding up and down all the hills. I picked up that three speed, but it just doesn’t quite work for me. I’ve been on the lookout for another bike, even missed a couple of nice ones on Craigslist. Today, I found this:

It needs some work, of course. I’ve wanted a Dutch bike, but prices are just too high for me. I would like to eventually have an electric assist bike. What I need now is just something to hack around on, something that is comfortable to ride. I believe this bike will do. I just wish I could find out more about it online somewhere.
