My Little Blue Boo

I miss my bike! I can't believe that I have gone the whole summer without successfully finding a decent bike over here! Every bike enthusiast in Korea is either a mud-in-the-crank MTNer or thinks its hip to ride an albino aluminum roadie! Give me chromoly! Give me quality! Give me character! Give me a bargain!

I have Googled my eyes out over every Seoul bike shop's website, and to no avail. It looks like everything is completely over my budget unless I hit the lottery or get sponsored by Pinarello. Buying a brand new bike is a waste when there is a world full of orphans out there. There are such great trails to ride here, and I just found the Seoul Critical Mass!! So I shall search on... With all the outdoor markets, I thought I'd have stumbled across something by now... Aish. I miss my princess, my Precious.
