Cranky and bright red

I forgot to post pictures of Isidore, my “new” bike.  I wasn’t having any luck with finding anything rideable, interesting-looking, and inexpensive on Craigslist, so I turned to the classifieds.  There were more bikes in my price range there than online.  I ended up paying $25 or $30, and it had the exact aesthetic that I wanted.  

I’ve done a lot of leisure rides, and one sort of ill-fated trip to work when my car broke down.  Has some issues, but overall it’s exactly what I was looking for.
