"We Can Rebuild Her. We Have The Technology.

We can make her better than she was. Better...stronger...faster."

Or, you know, pretty much the same.

2011 started off ok in my book - I finally got my bike back! Two months post-accident, some semblance of The Firebolt is back in my possession. She looks a little different thanks to her brand-spanking-new frame and bar tape, but she's essentially the same old gal.

Without the kicky red accents, I feel like the Firebolt moniker just doesn't fit anymore. Hence, I would like to introduce you to The Firebolt, reincarnated: introducing... The Freeze Ray.(I know it's a blurry picture in front of a bunch of crap, but I'm never home during daylight hours and my camera sucks.)

I definitely need to replace that red water bottle cage one of these days. Or maybe I'll keep it for the memories. But for now, hey! I have my bike back!

I totally missed the Kristen-got-hit-by-a-car thing! Whoa! So glad you're ok.

PS—the Freeze Ray? Sexy.

These bookshelves are like porn for readers! I know it's a picture of the bike, but HELLO BOOKS! :) Thank you for all your book recommendations this morning and for stopping by!

Haha! I do love my bookshelves - in my head I know I should probably weed out and get rid of the books I won't ever read again, but I just can't make myself do it. I'll be adding some of the books you reviewed to the ranks soon, I'm sure. And thank YOU for stopping by! :)
