Love this! My bike is called Big Red too and we are also great friends. We've been together for 12 years, she's seen me through 20,000 - 30,000km of commuting and day-to-day transport. Though being a step-through bike with 3 gears, I'll certainly never ride the length of Te Waipounamu on her!!!

One of my favorite pastimes is to ride the bike in RACES. Training for races and racing keeps me healthy, and encourages me to commute to work by bike!
