Hi there!
Hello all!
I just moved to a new city and found myself on the lookout for a decent used beach cruiser online. My old bike is a zippy mountain bike used for casual trail rides, but I wanted a cruiser with an upright riding style to explore the city with.
This week I lucked out on a beautiful, like-new 5 speed Pashley Princess Sovereign for less than half the retail price, and I finally got it home yesterday! I look forward to city exploring, beach picnics, and eventually getting brave enough to commute to work through rush hour traffic so I can give my car a rest.
I'm completely new to the world of bikes (recently learned a bicycle seat is a 'saddle', if that tells you anything) and I look forward to reading a lot of great information here.
Also, if anyone can point me to the correct place to ask about maintenance and general care for my Pashley - paticularily fixing a non functioning headlamp - I'd appreciate it.
Thanks for reading!
