Sam quoted Bicycling with Butterflies by Sara Dykman
It's white and pink paint job was speckled with rust-colored dingsāthe scars from past adventures. The bike was ugly. To me, however, it was a reliable machine, a deterrent to theft, a statement against consumerism, and my ticket to adventure. I liked the look.
