My new bike

Friday, May 26, 2006 7:12:08 AM

I got this cool bike the other day. Now that I have it I know all the girls love me and chase me down the street. So I ring my little bell and ride along with glee. Ok so maybe that’s not true but it does get to work faster and it has a nice little basket for me to store all my goods from the 99 yen store (^_^). I never imagined I would be one of those people driving down the street on a bike with a basket but I guess Japan does things to people, makes you crazy, and makes you ride bikes with bells and baskets. The bike is kind of useful though so it was a good buy. So if you ever come to Kichijoji look for me big pimpin on my new bike (^_^)

Great Bike, Be Careful....No one buys a new bike here. It'll be stolen within the month....grin. I'll stick to walking.

Did you get a wirelock? Many bikes are stolen every day and night, I'm afraid.

what a nice silver bike! It's like Japanese cars - simple and smallish (compared to American cars that is).

Pah. "Get off and milk it!" as we used to say. It hasn't even got a crossbar! It's a very, very girly bike. Sorry Reed.

Very nice bicycle! It is indeed very Japanese. I always wondered about the bar on men's bicycles - it always seems dangerously high!

Message to Ben - I was having a conversation with my Boss today when one of our colleagues rode past on his bike to which he shouted (my Boss) "get off and milk it". However when I asked him to explain what on earth he was banging on about he didn't have a clue. Can you shed any light as to what or where this phrase stems from as niether of us know? Cheers
