.

I am a mixed media artist, jewelry designer, foodie and funky B&B hostess.  I love crusty, rusty vintage finds, old photos and  flea market excursions .  I have recently become obsessed with all things bicycle. I have stumbled upon the Cycle Chic movement. Now I am on a quest to find the perfect bike, accessories and bike friendly areas.
 
 I share my little Crayola box with a menagerie of finches, ancient cat, silly English bulldog and last but not least a creative  husband and a  sweet young daughter. Between managing two business and a chaotic household. My only 'escape' is a bike ride! It is a nostalgic journey to pedal down the street and pretend I am 10 again.
 
I have rediscovered the joys of the open road -- the slow movement way.  It is also a  platform to showcase all the great neighborhoods, Independent small business and hidden gems San Diego has to offer. Living in North Park we are in the center of an emerging art scene.  Sweet South Park, eclectic Hillcrest and Kensington are just some of the areas I want to share. As well as reviews on bikes, accessories and my experiences as a novice bike rider. Come explore beautiful  San Diego, share my journey and see all my favorite cycle chic eye candy.
