Buying a bike. I had one before but it was stolen and couldn't afford to buy a new one. I got a new job though that pays much more than my old job so hoping to finally get back to cycling.
Ah that blows, sorry that happened to you. I saw a super sad statistic the other day, a large number (maybe even the majority, I can't recall) of cyclists who've had their bike stolen just stop cycling completely. I know I stopped for quite a while when my last bike got stolen before I could afford a new one.
It's a great feeling to hop back on a back afterwards, I hope you get one soon and get to enjoy some summer rides! :)
