I ride a bike…with my mom :)


Last post was about a wonderful Friday with my Hubb. This post is about a wonderful(ultra spontaneous) solo trip to my hometown. I had made plans with fellow ladybiker/blogger Kimmy-Bear, but her being the great animal lover she is, went to the aid of about 15 cats. I could not be mad of course…I have a kitty, and a great love for animals as a whole. Actually…here’s a pic of my mama!

Anyhoo, I was really looking forward to biking Central Park with Kim, so I decided to hit up my friend Danny since I haven’t seen him(and kept cancelling)since our last hang-out. He lives right over the Queensboro Bridge, I could have easily gotten off at 59th and Lex and crossed it..buuuuut….it was massively humid, and I looked massively cute and didn’t wanna mess that up Smile with tongue out DSCN4622
I mentioned before I have been upgrading my(ladybiker)wardrobe. Being a plus size chick, I make sure I dress how I feel, while keeping it all together..if you catch my drift haha So yeah I train it to QueensBoro Plaza, and bike it to the meet-up spot

With the help of Sandra Dee, I make it there in a flash…I frikkin love the feeling of having a car...just minus the size 10 carbon footprint Smile with tongue out I used to chill here all the time

That night ended up  me and few of my friends catching up. When I noticed it was getting late, and I didn’t wanna go home yet, I call my mother to try to surprise her…BUT SHE ENDS UP SURPRISING ME! She finally got her bike fixed! and that’s not all: HUBB BIKED TO WORK SATURDAY NIGHT TOO! How great is it when things just fall together? Sunday afternoon we all get together to pick up a few things for ma’s new ride Smile

  2. Awwww Kat, I love that you and Reg ride with your Mom! That's so wonderful. I am also a fan of Socrates Sculpture Park...I've enjoyed their outdoor yoga classes many a Saturday morning, and if you can get to their "Maker's Fair", they have many lovely and unique items!
    That helmet is too cute!
