Why Long Purple Bike?

People wonder where the name of my blog came from. There is actually a real long purple bike that lives under my laundry room. I got it when I was about 9 years old. It is a Bike-E recumbent. They don't make Bike-E's anymore. When I started this blog, fresh out of college and before I got my car, I was using my bike a lot to get around town, and since it was originally a place-based blog, it fit. I still associate my bike with freedom and unexpected little adventures. Read about one such adventure here.

enough he bought me one so he could have his back.)
