Back on the bike again. Even with how wet it was riding home this morning, as soon as you get on a bike you just make this massive sigh of relief to be riding again.
The worst ride is better than the best drive

Yeah. I’m umming and ahhhing about what bike to get. I’ve got a few options and am mostly stuck between something suitable or something nice for 50% more money. I’ve hardly been riding the last few years because I didn’t like my bike so the spend more on the nice option is tempting. Ideally it doesn’t get stolen, and being middle aged I’m hoping it’s the last bike I need to buy for my cycling career.

I got a Velectrix for around $2.5k. It’s a good balance between price and features. The main difference spending more would have got me is a bigger battery for more range. But the battery on this bike is kind of perfect for the ride to work and back right now
