Panda shot!

I love this picture of myself. Shawn and I took out our Raleigh 3-speeds (mine is a lady's "Sports" Roadster, his is a Wayfarer) and meandered from our place in SE Portland to North Portland and then Vancouver Washington for wine before making our way home.

This bike is fifty years old as of this year!! I'm pretty sure of the date of this bike, the Sturmey-Archer hub has "61" engraved into it, and the bike itself matches images I've seen of scanned catalogs of the era. Of course, this bike's design hardly changed for years. Why mess with what works?

Until yesterday (when I took this picture) I hadn't been on this bike in almost a year. I forgot how awesome it really is.

For the "bike wardrobe remix" folks:
Hat that you can't really see: randijofab.com
Black wool base layer top with a hood: MEC (aka the REI of Canada...or is REI the MEC of the USA?)
Red skirt: American Apparel, bought at a warehouse sale
Brown wool tights: B.Ella, bought at Sock Dreams
Socks: Sock it To Me, the "Portlander" stripe pattern, probably also bought at Sock Dreams (this is the second pair of these I've owned, when the last pair wore out I bought more!)
Shoes: Crocs. No, really. Bought on their website.
