just a quick 22 miles on the beach bike path to clear my mind from working all day and then a nice dinner out with some of Alex's colleagues.

The wine event sounds fun, Crankin! We ended up riding today after all. We did a loooong beach walk this morning, and DH's achilles started...

We went out to ride with our friends, into Historic Deerfield, about 12 miles from their house in Western MA. Clear and sunny and it got up to 57....

And here we thought, we were the only outliers when it came to "must be scent free" yuck with scent. We were using Arm and Hammer Scent Free but it...

Thanks ladies. I think the jacket with magnets is out of the running. I guess I could also consider the Pearl Izumi convertible jacket. It does...

You're so welcome! I do enjoy this kind of a setting, but it's not the most ideal for real fitness, since there is more stop/start, slow riding, and...

Love the post, Emily, about riding from town to town with all that shopping and things to see along the way. It's one thing we do NOT have in our...

I think magnets would feel horrible. I bought an expensive convertible jacket with zippers, from someone on TE (Bluetree?) at a reasonable price. The...

It's sunny! I just saw a FB post from Prospect Mountain, in southern Vt, the last place I went Nordic skiing. They are *still* completely open and...

I had an older LG jacket with magnets and I hated it. I found it difficult to remove sleeves without taking the time to remove the jacket. With...

Whoa…three posts in a row about improving weather…….glad to hear it. :) NY…..maybe I missed it but how did the floors come out? Emily….30A...

We are having so much fun riding here at the beach! I had no idea this little stretch of the US even existed in the Florida panhandle, but it is a...

I did ride last night, as planned. Averaged speed was about 0.1 mph less slow than last week. So, progress! ;) I did feel better than last week. My...

Given that I've been pretty consistent about reporting on our extreme weather, thought I would balance things out and report that we are scheduled...

Ha, ha. I like the description of the potholes. We had some so bad a couple of weeks ago, they were more craters than holes. They were filled quite...

We were running errands in town this afternoon and stopped at our local sporting goods store, which also carries bike stuff. Got two cell phone...

A zipper on my large suitcase got stuck that way a couple of weeks ago and I haven't been able to unstick it. Very annoying. I've been trying the...

I don't want a mountain bike; I rode a very nice 26" Voodoo as my first bike in 2000-2002. I just don't like the feeling of riding that geometry on...

Emily, nice to hear you got out on the MTB. I used mine as a commuter in my Chicago days for much the same reason. Those Chicago suburb roads on my...

Thanks for explaining about the holiday, Crankin! I figured it was Tax Day, not a holiday in my book. ;-) Spring break here has come and gone at...

That sounds like so much fun, Emily. I started researching commuter/in town type bikes yesterday while I was home in the frightful rainstorm. I came...

We had a fun ride today in the Santa Rosa Beach area of Florida's panhandle. We took a long beach walk in the morning, then got ready to ride out to...

Did just short of 10 miles of laps on our area paved roads. About half snow packed and half dry, so they should clear up, quick, with some nice...

No spring yet, here, but, of course, I have to expect that at this latitude. After spending the morning digging out from this last storm, I checked...

Crazy...I didn't realize it was any kind of holiday, but I did see some coverage of the Boston Marathon on the news, and it looked miserable! In...
