Short bike Shorts for My Sister’s Birthday

August 28th, 2009 by admin Leave a reply »

A couple of weeks ago, my sister reminded me that her birthday was approaching.  Since she moved to the city, and had a much smaller apartment, I wanted to get her something that I knew she would use.  I knew that she had been riding her bike everywhere that she went, so I decided that I would get her something to go with that.  I went down to the local bike shop to see if there was anything that she would like, and I found these amazing short bike shorts.  They were just her size, and they were black, her favourite color.

I looked around for a bit to see if there were any others that may fit her a little better.  They had a large selection of the spandex bike shorts, as well as the hot bike shorts.  There was one pair in particular that reminded me of my childhood.  They were black, with a long leg, and they had a bright pink stripe down each side.  I asked the man at the store of there were any others in the back, and he told me that everything that I saw on the shelves was what they had in stock.  In the end, I decided that the plain black short bike shorts were the ones that I would get for her.

I was happy to find out that the short bike shorts were on sale that day, and I would be saving quite a bit of money.  I called my brother to let him know that I had gotten the shorts for her, to make sure that by some strange coincidence, he did not go out and buy her the same gift.  Luckily, he hadn’t, and it was at that moment, that I came up with a wonderful idea.  I knew that my brother was also riding his bike a bit more since his car had quit working, so I decided to that I would buy him the men’s shorts.

I went back into the store and asked the man if the men’s short bike shorts were on sale as well, and he told me that they were!  Not only were they on sale, but they had several colors to choose from.  I didn’t want to get him the exact same shorts that I had gotten for my sister, so I decided on the red ones.  I don’t usually get them each a present when it is one of their birthdays, but since they were on sale, I could not resist!
