Did you know that every decent bike model out this year is green or blue or orange or neon yellow or any color of the rainbow that's not red?
I knew the Trek Jet 16 (after exhaustive research, the model I favored anyway) came in red. I just couldn't find one anywhere - all the bike shops had blue. Turns out the red was from a previous model year. Cue the fruitless searching.
One last ditch Google the week before Christmas turned up what might possibly be the last red one in existence, at a bike shop about an hour from here (and on clearance to boot!).
I know this looks like Bear is more excited about the Percy train, but me asking him to stand by his bike was the first time he EVER he voluntarily posed for a picture... and he smiled!
Here's a better shot of the bike bling...
I was worried that it would take a few weeks or months for him to figure it out, but by the end of the day he was zooming up and down the hall, doing intricate loops around furniture and asking when he can "take bike outside go fast!!"
I think I know where my run workouts are going to come from this spring!
