A custom-built bike from Urban Outfitters! Look how cute it is! I had no idea this was even an option, not being a big UO shopper myself, but I am totally smitten. I don't even ride bikes! I bought a bike at a tag sale before we moved to Boston in 2008, and I never once took it out of our apartment building's basement. We lived halfway up a giant hill on a busy street and I am a big baby. And then I was going to sell it before we moved here, but decided to keep it because I wanted to become a big, tough, bicycle-commuting (or at least picnicking) gal. But again, it sat in the lobby of the building, unused, with deflated tires, for months before it disappeared. So, no, I would likely not get as much use out of this 400 dollar custom-built bike as I should were I to blow money on it. BUT IT IS SO CUTE. It has RED TIRES, people, RED TIRES. And no worries, I even have my eye on a few not-totally-fugly helmets already, for when I win the lottery and can buy a bike and matching helmet to sit in my building's lobby -- this time with a lock.

Where I talk about things I would buy were frivolity and money no object.
