Bikes: clunky, soon-to-be-replaced 15yr old Novara (ugh!) and a sweet Schwinn cruiser I picked up at Burning Man.

Also, c'mon, getting it up to your apartment is the least of your worries. I can haul my full-squish up and down no problems. Put your riding gloves on your shoulder if you really need a pad.
Oh, that was mostly tongue-in-cheek. It's the least of my worries. Granted, I've never had a bike that I could just hop up the stairs with, so okay...I'm a little excited about it.

Yes. It's what I do. I can't get the bike quite yet, so in my excitement/impatience I'm getting really into the details. I just need to get my butt on a bike, really.
