Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

I like "slapped together." A project like that would have taken me 6 weeks and 5 trips to Home Depot.

Did it fit you well? As long as she doesn't use spurs on you, I figure you'll be okay.
