Yeah, it's really nice to have great news! Congrats on both.

Amen, sister.

I actively discourage anyone from going these days. Maybe I've practiced too long. I am burned out and ready to do something else as well, but then I run into problem A, which is...

My mom goes to Silver Sneaker classes. She's 82. Actually, this is probably a very 'growth' field. Interesting.

Personally, I can't imagine doing anything else. Two different big groups of friends got together - and both groups (one in Idaho and one at Northstar at Tahoe) met at the top of the mountain for...

I hope your friend (and other family and friends) will find comfort and support as they grieve their loss. Someone told me last year that grief is a process, not an event. That is so true. I hope...

I used to joke that they could scatter my ashes in the planters overlooking Neiman's shoe department, but seriously, I want to be scattered around like my brother (and in fact, in some of the same...

Freaked out? No, that is so beautiful and appropriate and loving. My 48 year old brother passed away very unexpectedly in March 2011. He was a professional snowboarder and adventurer and he was...

I haven't made a big career change...yet...but this is something I think about a lot, as I hit 55 and am eyeing what to do in my 2nd act career. I envision retiring from my present job (lawyer) as...

I bought a pair of the Performance bike knickers early this summer when TE first got them in. I love Craft - I think their stuff is very well made and high quality (hello,...

Thanks! It would be cool. Working on it.

Thanks bikerchic and azfiddle. I have to rearrange some work deadlines to pull it off, but working on it.

Yes, I think Tahoe probably had a lot more climbing (and at altitude), so I feel pretty...

+1 on this. They should all meet the same crash standards. In the higher end ones, you are paying for the ability to provide the protection with less weight and more venting. Living in Oregon,...

I don't know if they are easier or not for beginners, but I have Shimano SPD-SL pedals, which I switched to last year to have a wider base platform to be clipped into because I was getting hot...

I'm trying to figure out if I can swing traveling out there for it. I would really like to be there this year. If you've done it before, tell me a little bit about the route. I spent the summer...

I'm lucky that I can get on a bike path within a mile of my house and ride 40+ with only a few stops to cross a street. But, it's not the same as being on the road and it gets boring to see the same...

No doubt! SO glad you caught this before the knee procedure. Things do seem to come all at once, but it sounds like you have a great support system to help you get through to recover and being back...

I haven't really used Picasa much, but I have used Flickr a fair amount. Unless you upgrade to a pro account (which is only about $25/year or so), you are limited as to the number of images you can...

I have really dry skin in winter, in particular, as well. I have found several things that really, really help. This...

Did you ever find shoes? This has been a big issue for me this year as well (and I have the same issue with ski/snowboard boats), although because my feet are narrow and I have had to resort to...

To me, the biggest difference for the most part is the difference in the materials and how well they do in heat. Living in MN, this may not be as huge to you, but in Texas, I will pay whatever I...

You may have already found a custom jersey maker, but I just saw your post. I had custom jerseys done this summer by blackbottoms.com, which is in Utah. They were great to work with and they did...

I generally wear knicker length bottoms versus shorts due to getting a darned heat rash on my legs when riding in full, hot sun, but I'm also a fan of the Terry Bella stuff (great chamois, IMO and...

I have two items I'd love for someone else to get some wear out of rather than just sitting in my closet. I have a pair of LG Pro Knickers, XL, new, with tags, that I ordered back in January and...

Wishing you and Ruby many happy hours together!

Ha, isn't that usually how it works? Long-time serious amateur (like from back in film developing and printing days). Still shooting my 5D (but eyeing the 5DIII at this point). Have my brother's...
