I was now less than a half-marathon away and could feasibly jog back home were an ill-fated mishap happen to the iron steed now, like another tire explosion. Connect and share knowledge within a single location that is structured and easy to search. I may live in an active-adult community, but this grandma isn’t over-the-hill yet! In fact, I feel much younger whenever I’m on my Huffy Cruiser. I’ve added a few photos of my Huffy hangin’ out in Solivita (which means ‘Life in the Sun!’) where I live.

And the wire basket and adjustable rear rack are perfect for a backpack, iPad, or stack of books. With the double density grips and pedals (I can even wear sandals without any foot slippage) it will be a comfortable ride and cheap mode of transportation. This is a classic cruiser with a front basket, a built-in rear rack, a cup holder, and a matching set of fenders to keep you dry. It features a coaster (aka pedal-back or foot brake) that is easy to use and requires minimal maintenance. I’ve experienced this before, a result of over-inflating the Huffy’s tires. The rims on this bike were not exactly machined to military precision and don’t seem to “grab” onto the tires’ wire beads very securely.
Wearing glowsticks on the neck and wrists and reflective orange bands on the calves, I set out onto dark roads illuminated only by the super-bright headlight of the cruiser. One great thing about setting out at this cricket-chirping hour was that there were very few cars on the road. It was a particular relief to make it out of the Poudre Canyon shortly after the last remnants of daylight disappeared.
The metallic blue Huffy Cape Cod cruiser is design for comfort, convenience and fun. The convenient front rack is designed for easy use with a large area to carry items. A stylish pouch is tucked behind the saddle with enough room for your keys, huffy trail runner phone and other essentials. The special details begin with the custom sculpted aluminum head tube badge featuring the Cape Cod design. Proprietary chrome Cape Cod insignias adorn the bike, with an anchor featured on the chrome crown fork.
Whatever the case, my wish for a relaxed, sit-down lunch stop at the Shell Station was now shot to pieces. I would have to bust out the wrenches and Phillips screwdriver to disconnect the rear coaster brake and undo the rear axle due to the lack of quick releases. More unnerving was the realization that the ruptured tube was not salvageable and that I’d have to use the only spare tube in my emergency kit to replace it. I had patches for punctures, but it didn’t occur to me earlier that split tubes were a real possibility with this bike. I should have brought at least two spares to have a higher margin of safety. Chains come in one length and are shortened to the appropriate length for the bike by removing links and joining the ends.
