Ergo, craigslist and a new bike. I found one I liked. It's pink and it has a basket on the front. My plan is to buy a beater now and if I find that I do ride it regularly, then I'll be able to justify the expense of buying something a bit nicer.
This is my dream bike. I'll post a picture of my huffy with the basket on the handlebars when I get it tomorrow. I have to get the u-frame so I can ride in a skirt.

I already got a wagon to drag the kids down to the park. It's brilliant. It's super fun to live someplace this walkable, bikeable, wagonable, and bus-able.
Time for some breakfast tacos. More pics of the kids later.

That is great that so many people bike in Austin AND that you'll be joining them. My husband bought me a nice bike at the beginning of the summer and though Oklahoma City hasn't made it to bike commuter status, I love riding it!
I'm glad you got to bike. You can bike in Atlanta, too -- if you want to get killed.

That's one SWEET dream bike! I am jealous of the bike lanes in Austin -- no such luck in Erie.
And, Ian, I biked for 7 years in Atlanta and did not get killed. Ok, technically, Decatur.
