Cycling again

Seeing I wasn't getting the missing tyres my city bicycle is missing, Kiko gave me a bike that was at his parents' house, and nobody has used in a long time. Thanks!

So I've been cycling again for over a week, and it feels great after 2 months. I had forgotten the amount of freedom an old bicycle can provide. No more caring about how late the Metro will be. No more borrowing my mum's car to go here or there just because when I have to go back there's no more public transport, no more not knowing how much it will take to get to places...

It's simply one of those things you don't really realise you are missing that much until you get back to doing it again, and makes your days a bit more happy.

I need a name for the new bicycle, of course. I will probably stick to something original like the Fletxa daurada, to match the names of her sisters Fletxa verda and Fletxa blanca. If you think giving names to bicycles is silly, well... I won't argue. :)
