I picked up my first adult bicycle for a cool fifty bucks from Sports Junkies in Port Moody at 23 and haven’t looked back. My bicycle takes me from A to B—even during the harsh Saskatchewan winter—and all of the places in between. I ride regularly with the Prairie Randonneurs, and whoever else can stand my company.
