Treat Yo Self: Beach Cruiser
It’s snowing yet again. The winter started out pretty tame here in NY, but these past couple of weeks have been full of snow, snow and more snow. Don’t get me wrong it look likes like a winter wonderland outside with everything covered in white, but we are all getting stir crazy inside. I’m constantly looking up winter getaways and thinking about activities we can do once it starts to get warm.
Activity number one on my list is getting a beach cruiser! I haven’t been on a bike in years, but my sister got one for Christmas and her retro looking bike got me itching for my own. Now I’m totally afraid I’ve forgotten how to ride a bike, but I’m willing to look like a fool while I get the hang of it again.
Here are some bikes that are my short list of favorites:
Huffy Cranbrook Cruiser in Pistachio for $89.
Huff Cranbrook in Orange Sherbet for $95.60.
Huffy Nel Lusso Cruiser in Gloss Blue for $128.57.
Huffy Deluxe Cruiser in Mint for $169.99.
So who is ready to go cruising with me?

My living room is one of the rooms that evolved drastically from when we first moved one. Originally I painted the walls chocolate brown and did accents of white, blue and orange. That lasted maybe 2 years.
Our dining room sat empty for months. Okay maybe it was empty for just a handful of weeks and then we couldn’t take it anymore and put in a folding table and plastic outdoor chairs, but in my mind that was still empty.
On the main floor of our house we have a Florida room. Being that it’s a Florida room it is a considered a 3 season room, because there is no heat in the room. The previous owners used it as an indoor patio with outdoor furniture and it looked like this when we moved in.
Oh i didn’t realize these were so affordable! Thanks for sharing.
Yet another reason to be jealous of those with garages!
You should get one for the shore!
Me! I actually just bought a bike in January, when we had gorgeous weather. Now…not so much, and I live in southeast Texas where March is supposed to be spring. Anyway, I paid way more than I ever thought I would, but I haven’t regretted it at all. I bought an Electra Townie (they also have cruisers) and adore it. My boyfriend has a mountain bike and wanted to ride, but I hadn’t been on a bike in 18 years. I borrowed the one we bought for my mom for her birthday a few years ago (which she rode once, crashed, and never got back on) and had so much fun, I decided I needed one. The only thing? That bike was NOT comfortable riding for a long time. Anyway, long long explanation, but get a bike! They’re so fun!
I totally think I need one! I will keep you posted.
While I LOVE the look of Beach Cruisers, if you live in an area that gets any amount of wind, you will hate it. You may want to buy one with a few switchable gears. There are some stylish ones out there. Living in Fl. (breezy) I got a cute purple ladies Schwinn, with fat tires for between $100-$150. The gears witch very easily!
