I've been offered a wind trainer at what I think is a reasonable price, but I'm not at all familiar with them. I know that Magnetic trainers are louder than Fluid trainers and that a Fluid trainer...

I don't post often, but we're hanging in here. The groomer cancelled Marcellus the cat's grooming appointment this morning. It looks like the rain has let up for a bit, here in the Mission District...

Good luck to you in your...
