It's over. Really, it's been over now for a month. She up and left me hanging...
My bike, Bianca, has left a hole in my heart and in my life. I guess you could say that I didn't realized how attached I was to her until she was no longer. We'd been together for almost 3 years now and have been through a lot together. She even made the move with me to DC instead of dating long distance. But then the relationship suffered an injury. I made the tough decision to let her go, for her never to return. I hope her new partner treats her as well, with as much love and respect.
In her absence, I've now "dated" 5 other bikes, but none of them compare. This is a more profound experience than I anticipated, making me realize the importance of having a bike relationship that "fits". This leaves me a little wary of the process of finding a new bike. It's going to take time and effort, but I guess that's worth it for any quality relationship that you care about.
So here's to the search for her replacement. Bike, come out, come out, wherever you are!
