The Oswego Prefers . . .



"H. M. B. Oswego" is the christened name of an orange bicycle that was once baby blue. It's named after a town in northern Indiana where there's a great church called Calvary Baptist. The Oswego has definite opinions. It prefers to be equipped with fenders and a generator hub. It likes to climb hills in a really, really low gear. And it loves the Annapolis Tea Company at the corner of Candelaria and Menaul. This is not just a place for girls and their bikes. Boys and their bikes like it too. A boy I know pretty well says this place makes him loquacious.
