We are Bikers!

Now that the weather has warmed up, for what looks to be permanent until October or November, we started the search for bicycles that we can ride at least to and from work and maybe even farther.  We had been looking on Craigslist for the past couple weeks but never came up with anything available in our price range so we decided to start looking at bike shops.  There is one right across the street from the school we work at so tonight after work we went over there, picked up a couple bikes for ourselves and joined the millions of other Seoul bike riders and walkers on the sidewalk.  They are both brand new and the guy was nice enough to even include locks for us.  We are pretty excited to start riding our bikes and saving money by not paying for the bus twice a day (except during monsoon season because we will not be riding during the monsoons!).  Just riding to and from work five days a week for both of us will save us about $60 a month.  Not to mention how much we are already saving by not paying for gas!  Tonight our bikes are locked up outside the apartment building but not before we brought them inside to take a picture :)
