I spotted her...
leaning, waiting,
thrown to the curb.
My husband knew..
He turned the car around...I smiled.
She fit nicely on top the many bags of mulch we had just purchased.
Only to rip one bag ;)
The wire basket will be replaced with a wicker one.
Just perfect for Heidi!
Check out these white walls....ha!
Yeah....me and these girls have many miles ahead of us...
To the kind person who left this sweet ride for the trash....thank you!
I have found a treasure indeed!

I can't believe someone was throwing her out! what a wonderful gift!
ReplyDeleteThat is a wonderful find!
ReplyDeleteWoo whoo!!!! I love her!!!! I can't believe that you found her on the curb. Lucky YOU!!!!! I just purchased a cruiser (added a wicker basket, too) and I have had the best time riding her. Check it out on my blog. So happy for you, Susie!!!

She is lovely. I bought a bike this summer and have been looking for a wicker basket too. Check out Ebays "FRONT BICYCLE BASKET FOR BIKE Peterboro Ashwood". It's rocking my world!
ReplyDeleteHappy Trails Sister!

Good lord what happy little treasure to find abandoned! I have spent the entire weekend junking and have come home with a single (pretty) postcard... Happy cycling!.x
ReplyDeleteSuch a great find. My daughter has borrowed her grandmothers bike like that but it's missing a basket like that and she's on the hunt for one. Yours is a great color too. My hubby is always too embarrassed to stop and pick up goodies on the side of the road. Hug yours for me and tell him I say way to go!!!!
ReplyDeleteOh I like the metal basket...I was just thinking I had seen one like that in an antique shop. A wicker basket is nice too~Walmart sells a nice old fashioned looking one!!
ReplyDeleteLove this bicycle! I even like the wire basket, though... hmmm... You could doll it all up you know. - Kathy
ReplyDeleteI like the wire, too! You could just add a padded fabric liner for your little one's comfort. It could be cute spray painted first, too.
ReplyDeleteTotally digging that ride! Whoever considered her trash doesn't understand the meaning of treasure!
ReplyDeleteSweet find!
ReplyDeletewhat a score!!! :o)
ReplyDeleteseriously cannot believe someone put that on the curb. wow lucky you!

ReplyDeleteWoo Hoo...what a great find!!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh! How could they throw that away? I would LOVE a bike like that! Just simple, no frills, no gears to mess with...LOVE! (Can you tell I'm trying not to be jealous? HA!)
ReplyDeletei'd **love** that basket for my own bike (which i use to get groceries). are you willing to part with it for a fair price? :o)
