30 Days of Bike

Chronicling the life of a lonely, left behind, lil' bike. Start back at the first post to get the whole story.

DAY 3
Solitude, our bike has the trash area all to itself this evening. As you can see, someone was kind enough to engage the kickstand. Thereby lending a small amount of self respect to a bike that is struggling for something to live for. This morning in the shower I found myself wondering if there was any chance the owner was simply on a long vacation. Would they return to liberate their velocipede and allow it to realize it’s potential? Doubtful…
Also worth mentioning, the reason for the night shot. I was planning on taking my photo around two in the afternoon. However, there was a group of dudes working on a car about four feet away. Admittedly, I felt a little embarrassed about staging my little purple bike photo shoot in front of them. Forced to make a right I stopped at the coffee store and bought two things I didn’t really want. I passed the bike again this evening and was able to nail the shot.
