    Thanks for the advice everyone! Yes, there are clinics often put on by local groups, although none scheduled right now -- I'm not sure if they will continue through the winter or not. I'm also...
  2. How to develop skills as a beginner mountain biker

    I just bought my first mountain bike, and discovered this morning that unfortunately road riding skills do NOT translate to the trails, other than knowing when/how to shift, I suppose. I ended my...

    Just another vote for going "no poo." Here is my routine:

    Once a week I do a true wash of my hair. Week 1 I wash with diluted baking soda, with a diluted apple cider vinegar rinse (rinse 2x with...

    Haha I like the way you look at it. I decided that rather than saying I have 4 bikes, I will tell myself I have a road bike, a mountain bike, a commuter/touring bike, and a backup...

    Are we sure its cheaper though??? I just sold my car this past year and uh lets just say that this mountain bike purchase will put my bike acquisitions of the past 18 months over what I just got for...

    Welp, looks like I'm buying ANOTHER bike

    I call myself a minimalist -- seriously!!! -- but I'm now actively looking at mountain bikes. Meeting up with a craigslist person on Saturday and I think there is a very, very good chance I will be...
  7. Right, you guys are raising the point I worry...

    Right, you guys are raising the point I worry about most, which is that I am not really the type of person to jump into something unprepared, and I do get very frustrated with myself when I don't do...
  8. I'm considering doing my first cross race on Saturday....

    People keep saying that cross is the sort of thing you can and maybe should just "jump into," and it's best to get your feet wet. It is something I am interested in doing at some point as a new...

    I think part of the issue I'm having is that its only a 20 mile ride, so I don't feel like I get a pass on calories the same way I do after a 50 or 70 mile ride. I don't think I'm under-nourished -...

    Oh this is a very good point. My allergies have definitely kicked up in the past week or two.....breathing hard outdoors for a couple hours could explain a lot of this!!

    Best recovery tips?

    I've started doing a HARD 20 mile group ride on Thursday evenings. The group is really beyond my level, so I'm going at 95-100% max effort for the whole hour plus ride just trying to not get dropped...

    I got a 48. It actually feels smaller than my 48 Dolce, I think due to the more aggressive geometry. Looking forward to getting my fit done as things all feel a little bit wrong, but I'm sure the...

    I took it out this morning for a quick spin before work. I didn't have time to properly warm up or wake up, so my times weren't quite what I was hoping for, but it was still probably my strongest...

    We have 8 bikes in the house right now, and a 9th out on loan, it's ridiculous. We are over capacity but neither of us is ready to dump any of the bikes.

    We have bike racks scattered throughout...

    UPDATE: I just test rode the CAAD10 and fell in love. I briefly wavered because I didn't get to test ride the Amira yet (or I could have just ordered the Evo), but I more or less came to the...

    Welp, I just test rode the CAAD10 and FELL IN LOVE....so all of this hemming and hawing were moot, haha. I'm sitting at home looking at my new bike right now :)

    Yeah, I think what away going on with the Silque is that it was too big, and they maybe even had swapped the stem out....not to my knowledge, but with the way it was handling I wouldn't be surprised....

    Thanks Sheila!! I'll keep my eyes open for someone stocking small men's sizes!

    I'm glad you found an answer to your shortie problems!!

    I think my proportions must be a bit different from yours, as my 48 Dolce does fit me well. I got a professional fitting and he didn't...
  23. What I'm starting to worry about is...

    What I'm starting to worry about is easily-adjustable things like stem heights and stock wheels affecting my view of the bikes, though! There are so many variables that come into play.

    Kirsten, I'd love to hear about what other bikes you rode/considered before you got the SuperSix! Or was it love at first sight?

    Crankin, I know!!! I was very surprised and don't really know what to think about it. Perhaps it really wasn't a size 50 like I believed. Or maybe it was just a matter of a large smooth parking...
