This Week in Cycling

080411-mujibike

The big change in my cycling life this week is that my wife has joined in on the fun. Is it much of a surprise if I tell you that she got a MUJI bike as well? She got the model pictured above, the Aluminum ATB Type Bicycle. I always figured I’d eventually upgrade and let her use my current bike, but I think I’m going to be putting off the upgrading for a while, so this is good. The same day she received it, on Tuesday, we did a late evening ride following my regular route along Kanda river (but unfortunately, it wasn’t as pink as pictured here).

UpdateSome sad news to add. It would seem that our good friend Alin Huma was in a serious bike accident. His son Meta was with him, but apparently wasn’t hurt. There are more details in the comment thread.
