B is for Bicycle

With spring on the way, I was thinking about getting a bicycle. It will probably take a bit of research to find the right one. To start, I live in Hastings on a hill in a flat, so it will have to be light, with a few gears and need to think of a place to put it. It will also need to be red. I always admired Pee-Wee Herman's bike. Where can I find a lion horn?

He looks so happy!

Bells Bicycles
Bells Bicycles is a lovely bicyle shop in the Old Town. They restore vintage bikes, repair, hire and I love all the accessories! They just moved into a larger space on George Street, must check it out soon.

"At Bell’s we believe in having an adventure every day. Whether you are by the sea, in the countryside or in town, for leisure or pleasure, have fun on your bicycle, avoid the traffic jams and cut a dash."

I think this red Pashley would be ideal!
