Back Posting! Jazmin, N Green St & W Lake St, Chicago, IL

Jazmin on her cruiser

Where are you going? I am just taking a mid day trip around the West Loop! At first I am headed to go thrifting, and them who knows... I am just enjoying the weather :)

 
What are you wearing? 
I am wearing a Vintage Levi's Jacket from my Boutique, NattyCoquette.com! My sweater dress is from Macy's! Forever 21 leggings. My shoes are from DSW from 2010! My scarf that is wrapped around my braids is from Avon! Lol

 

Tell me about your bike, and where you got it?
The bike that I am riding is rented from the office in my building! Rental is free for all tenants! I just moved into the area and I am looking to purchasing the best bike for my height! I think maybe a Huffy!

Why ride?

Riding is awesome because not only do you get the exercise you need but you also are able to move more swiftly than on foot. I do not have a car so a bike is the next best thing! 

Favorite ride?

I truthfully don't have a favorite route! I just started riding in the West Loop area! If I had to choose though, I was say Washington is the best street for me to ride down lol . Washington and Randolph's are extremely empty!!! I love it! 

While riding you …?

While riding I listen to music! I love listening to Absoul and DannyBrown!!! I can't wait Danny's his concert on the 25th of April! :)  Also, when biking next to the police, I get really nervous!!!!!!! Is that normal?? Lol

How can Chicago improve bike infrastructure or be more bike friendly?
I am a novice Chicago biker! With that being said, I really don't have an suggestions

Laura rides a custom re-build mixte frame from Lugs

Sometimes I diligently write down someone's email, and then I just can't find it.  That is what happened with this young lady, but [hopefully] I remembered a few details correctly—  
#1 her bike is a custom rebuild from Lugs.  I'm convinced the folks over a lugs are as interested in people looking good on bikes as I am, so mad props!  I'll be hitting them up when I can throw down some cash for a custom rebuild. 
# 2. Her name was Laura and she was headed north.

Sorry for loosing your email Laura.  Please comment if you see this and have anything to add.

*** Side note: There is cause for celebration today— Chicago is getting a protected bike lane near my office!  I have been patiently watching the construction of the Dearborn protected bike lane and I'm excited to go for a test ride.  I'll be spending lunch here so come by and celebrate!
