our new taxi bike!

I bought myself a used Jamis Commuter bike (7-speeds, comfy seat, fenders, rack) and found a Trail-a-Bike for Seb and an Ibert front seat for Liesl on Craigslist*. We're on the move!!! Slowly. And not up any steep hills. :)

*This led to some great conversations with Sebastian about the internet - like, what is Craigslist? Are we going to a store? What do you mean it's someone's house? Are they selling other stuff? It also led to a very non-New York experience, wherein a guy I only knew from a Craigslist post and a couple of text messages left the Ibert on his front porch for me. I stopped by when he wasn't home, took the bike seat, and left cash in his mailbox. Crazy.
