I see you found something to try, but another suggestion for online shopping with little to no hassle... try Road Runner Sports. They are a CA company (check and see if there is one in Denver......

I have flown with my Jack Russell Terrier a few times. He is 16 lbs, and does fit into a sherpa under seat bag, but can't stand up. He doesn't mind though since he can turn around just fine. No...

Another Houston biker here... some of this depends on how early you plan to ride in the winter... if you are doing the MS150 training series, you will be out early and need some warm clothes.

I...

Hang in there! it get's better, but sounds like you are doing quite well already. You are right that the nerve pain can take a while to heal... I still get twinges in my big toe now 8 months later....

Hey! Were you there the weekend of Sept 11-12? I was there for part of the day on Sept 11!!! How crazy... we might have walked right past each other! My uncle and Grandma live in Cheboygan, so...

that was awesome! Thanks for posting MP! might not have won at the Tour... but he sure ROCKED Leadville! :-)

OK, since Jobob made me post a photo of Oliver, my 1 year old Jack Russell Terrier in another post, I figured I should put him here too. :-)

Here he is just a week or so ago looking very cute at...

Hi Jo!
Will this work for you??

Hello all,
well, it has been almost a year since the infamous crash, and I just started coming back to the forum (Thanks JoBob and Snap!), so thought you all deserved a bit of an update.

As I...

I am going to jump in here with a slightly different perspective. I understand, and fully support, trying to do the PT and non-surgical route if at all possible. Obviously, if you can get relief...

Hello all-
Well, time for an update I guess.... took the bike in to the shop to get looked at... appears to be fine, got a new helmet, so you would think I would be getting ready to get back into...

Thanks for all the well wishes ladies! Pretty sore this morning, and some of these bruises are going to be pretty impressive.

Yup, we are pretty sure that I lead with my head and it went right...

so, had my first crash today...no fun.

Was doing a brick workout with my friend Amie and her boyfriend at a local park (Memorial for those that know Houston). We were riding a loop that all the...

Hello all-
I am helping a friend who is just getting into outdoor cycling and triathlons find her first road bike (she is currently a spin instructor). We went to the bike shop yesterday to get her...

yeah, we had thought about doing it on our own, but then decided that we would rather go up, ride the park in Bastrop, and then do a nice long rides somewhere outside of Austin in hill country......

yeah, we are already chuckling about it...bikes are off the rack now. Amazing what a locksmith can do with 30 seconds and $$ :rolleyes: but did end up getting in a 36 mile ride around Houston this...

So this weekend was the BP MS150 from Houston to Austin...it was the 25th year, so kind of a big deal, and I work for the title sponsor...so lots of stuff going on at work.

Well Friday afternoon...

sounds like rain was the order of the day! Glad you all had a good time....i sure do miss riding in the Bay Area and with you all! Maybe sometime I will bring my bike back on a trip....

hope you all had a wonderful time! I was thinking about you all when the last 15+ miles of my 40 mile ride (with no bakery and beer) were in the 50 degree rain!

Hope you took photos!

I tore my ACL 5 years ago skiing. For me, there was no pain from the actual tear, but I had a lot of swelling within the knee and was on crutches for 3 weeks while the swelling went down and I was...

about 2 years ago I was in a similar situation... I am 5'3" and weighed about 150-155...was active, but then started really ramping up my workouts... at the gym 3-4 times/week and riding or running...

yup photoshop... that is from the comic strip PhD or Piled Higher and Deeper... it was started by a couple of Stanford grad students in the late 90s and is a staple at Stanford and at a lot of...

Not me! Not me! I already did my part for the cause :rolleyes:

Yup, that is my excuse... I did it just to protect you Mel :-)

Thanks ladies! I am pretty excited.
