I'm sure that you'll have it up and running in a day or two. Just be glad that it's the battery and not something that it would have to go in the shop for. It could be worse. You'll still have plenty of days to feel the wind blow through your hair!!!!

That's very true. I'm glad it isn't anything worse, because my warranty expired at the end of March and I decided not to renew it. The bike is only a year old, so what could really go wrong? Of course, that almost always means that something WILL go wrong! But at least the battery is something I can do myself!

And it's not terribly expensive. I hope you get it back soon!

 For now, here's a picture of the bike last year after I washed it. I love the color. I call it "cute" but the guys don't like that term lolI got a call from my dad this afternoon, and he had talked to a friend of his who told him that sometimes bike batteries will need to be hooked up to a charger for at least 24 hours before they hold a charge, so it is now hooked up to the charger in my grandma's garage. He told me not to go out and buy a new one until I find out if it works in a day or two. It's good news if it works, but if not there's another couple of days wasted! I guess I'd be more sad if the weather was going to be nice this week, so luckily the forecast is rain!

It's a real beauty! I hope the charger works. Wear a helmet! (Sorry - the mom in me).

 And I'm really paranoid... I never get on the bike without wearing my jacket, gloves, helmet, and boots. Last year I was just driving around the block from the front to the back of my house, so I didn't put on the boots or my jacket and it felt too weird!
