Biking Bag

Tote bags are great, but a tote bag that turns into a backpack is even better.  Especially when riding a bike.  The Trans//Porter is handmade in Brooklyn and available from Dargelos.

Dispatch from the estate : morning

The orange light is sifting through the trees, the cats are playful, and the parakeet on the porch next door is chirping quietly.  My bike awaits, and I'm off to another day of work.

Time to get back in the saddle

Finally got my bike back from being restored.  It was on my porch for a few years, abandoned with no wheels until recently when I decided it was a good time to sink some dough back into her.  A powdercoat job, some wheels from my dad, and some fancy Brooks parts were the fun and easy parts.  Flying Pigeon did the hard work I couldn't do. 

Several months and several hundred dollars later, here she is, good as (or better than) new.
