Got to have a goal. My goal is to commute to work all the way, 4 out of the 5 days. I live 22 miles from work, and last year I would drive to the start of the bike path and commute from there (10...
I am wondering if any of you have come across cycle shorts that are cut lower, especially in the back. I find my PI's, and Sheebest come up quite high on the back. Being in the hot 50's age range, I...
Thank you, I am sure that those we love who are not here physically, do urge us on to do just that. When this happened 3 years ago, that is when I started back to semi serious, or at least regular...
