It is easy to spend money on all things photography related. I picked up this bike at the local pawn shop for less than sixty dollars. I had to spend another $25 on a seat and I found an old carrier to put on the back and invested $14.00 on a basket for the front that I rather like. it has a handle on it so stuff can be carried.
I don’t know how many miles I have put on it but I am having a lot of fun and am able to get photographs that I would have to walk a long way for. I took it to some meetings last week. My handbag fits in the basket and I can strap my netbook onto the carrier in the back, and there is room for my camera too.
I have taken photos of the bike in various locations around town. I am not sure what I am going to do with them all but like I said I am having fun. Maybe I will make a separate page for them.

No iPad yet?
Yes my iPad arrived on Friday. I can’t take pictures with it but I am using it to write this comment.
congrats! One of my favorite themes to shoot, (which I have neglected for some time) is bicycle photos. I bought a newer bike 2 years ago for the same reason you posted here, getting around more for photo-shooting.
Very cool. Photography seems to be a kind of gateway drug to other hobbies
