My other side


Totally unfeminine?
Scruffy?
Unkept?
All of the above?

Guilty as charged!
This is what I have to wear when I ride my bike. Which I don't do that often nowadays. Athens streets are a bitch. But today, I had to collect it from the mechanic in Nea Smyrni and drive it back all the way to Maroussi. In *this* heat.

My face and eyes still hurt from the hot air blasting through my helmet. Not to mention what happened to my legs...

Two-stroke. And that's why I would never wear my more "proper" shoes to ride.

PS. I see many people got confused... I don't ride a bicycle. In fact, I don't remember how to. I drive a two-stroke (hence the oil stains) 125cc motorbike, more specifically the one I mentioned months ago, in this post.

μια χαρά και αυτό το outfit...γιατί όχι!σίγουρα πολύ καλύτερο, αν εξαιρέσεις τα λάδια και τη μυρωδιά της διχρονίλας, από το να οδηγείς στους δρόμους της Αθήνας ή μάλλον να είσαι σταματημένη στους δρόμους της Αθήνας με αυτοκίνητο...λολ

kathyfashiongirl: Καλό θα'ταν να υπάρχουν ποδηλατόδρομοι, αν και δεν θα με επηρέαζε ιδιαίτερα. Believe it or not, έχω ξεχάσει πια να οδηγάω ποδήλατο. Η μηχανούλα μου παραέχει βαρύ τιμόνι για να γυρίσω πίσω στα παλιά...
