My Bike
Tonight, I want to salute my bike...
Purchased in 1992, used every day for four years in undergrad in rural Ohio, taken to Texas where it was used infrequently, shipped to Turkey (used for grocery shopping and helped me win first place in the Incirlik Airbase's "military sports day" women's cycling competition), parked on my balcony in Seattle, hidden in storage for a year, rediscovered in 2001 and parked in a living room in the Adams-Morgan neighborhood of Washington DC and occasionally ridden to the State Department, and finally hauled via freight to Tucson, Arizona.
I love my bicycle.

That's one thing I miss about my undergrad days - I could ride my bike to get anywhere I needed to go.
