Day 146: Backies

20121219-012829.jpg

This is me and Patti Beth after coming home from a Christmas party in Amsterdam. We took the bus and when we were coming home, the bus didn’t stop at my stop even though I pressed the button. PB’s stop was two stops away from mine, and she had her bike at the bus station. So she gave me my first bike ride straddled on the back of her bike at 12:30 am! They call these “Backies” but usually the back rider sits side saddle. I chose to straddle so we’d be more balanced.

We only fell while trying to get on the bike on the slippery, wet bricks. But then we were ok, laughing all the way! This picture was taken after our safe arrival back at the bus stop!

What a great way to end day 2 of vacation. I’m so glad we stayed in town.
