bike

My sister recently visited from Germany. She has got my dads bike fixed for his fathers day present (its been out of service for 3 or 4 years) and it inspired me to get mine fixed too. My bike used to be my mom's bike so it is of a certain vintage. I rode it around for an hour and it gave me a terrible blister from gripping the brakes for my life, because they don't work, not to mention a very bruised behind. I think I am going to try to find/buy a new one. I don't want to get stuck inside this summer, even though I am dancing all the time.
I'm trying to do a road trip with some friends to see Spamalot on Broadway this thursday. We were thinking about driving but it costs so much and is such a hassle with directions, driving, and parking that I think a bus would be much easier. That's still a road trip, right?
Still trying for burning man, I have a few more people to call. The whole plannng process for it is such a parental teen headache, but I'm not giving up.
