lately i’ve been on the search of a new bike back rack. i had a dilemna with my old rack as it was too small to hold my panniers and not as sturdy as i would like it to be. it even snapped on me from so much friction on road, not very safe. for me this is a commuting problem because i carry heavy school books, groceries, shopping finds, and other items every day. yesterday i made a quick stop to my favorite neighborhood bike shop Homespun where my friends Jesse and Ami fixed me up with this adorable used rack, even has a light reflector, very handy. since the new semester requires more items to carry on bike, i am super stoked to have a reliable rack that can hold EVERYTHING i need to carry on a daily basis. thanks jesse and ami!
yay! i am getting a new rack too among other things too..will share more next week! one that doesn't way so much! nice score! i told the mister about homespun and we want to check it out! they are so cool! i love that they have garden classes and sell local edible plants! it is so important to have great working equipment for your bike, so worth it!

they are my favorite people by far too! and christie, they sell local artist handmade products, you should get your foot in that door, you have such a talent for making things and i know people will love it.
