The bike's name is Betsy

While on my lunch hour today I spotted this cute pink bike locked up to a thin little tree.

I dug out my camera to document this cute bike.

I was snapping away, absorbed in the picture taking process and didn’t realize I had my head hanging out into oncoming traffic. Thankfully a bus decided to honk rather than smoke me in the pumpkin and/or destroy my camera and I quickly got out of the way.

I carried on taking pictures when the owner arrived. She patiently waited for me to take few more photos before going to unlock her bike. When I asked her if I could take her picture with her lovely bicycle. She did! Yay! She’s just as I pictured the owner to be. Funky. Just look at her skirt!

I don’t know the girl’s name, but she told me her bike’s name is Betsy.

I gave her a moo card with my contact info on it, so she just may stop by to see this shot.

Love the pics Carol – what girl wouldn’t want a pink bike?! I am so glad you didn’t get your pumpkin bonked by the bus!

I once saw a motorcycle in the parking lot at Brentwood mall. It had the word "tiger" painted on it, so I pulled out my camera. Art’s niece is named Tiger, so I thought she’d like it. Just then the owner came along. He wasn’t quite as gracious as Betsy’s owner, so I didn’t get any good shots. Too bad.
