We have motorolas and don't really use them like I envisioned. I thought we could actually have short conversations, but it's really not clear enough. We mainly use them for "car back" and "gotta...

Thanks for the info! You're lucky you have the mounts for a rack -- unfortunately for me, mine is an earlier year model with the carbon seat stays and no rack eyelets - rats!

Good luck on your...

No advice to offer, but I'm in the same boat. I have a Specialized Dolce and husband has a comparable bike. We are interested in trying out touring (more like credit card touring), but don't want...

A big screen tv. Seriously. I suppose it's better than roadkill (but there was lots of that too).

I love my kindle and consider it one of the best purchases ever, BUT, I don't like it for any reference/study books. I found that ereaders are fabulous for reading start to finish type of books, but...

I understood where you were coming from. A lot of people had really great points about bike safety, and I'm a huge proponent of taking the lane, but in my opinion, the criticisms posted didn't...

I've started freezing my camelbak, too. I fill it between half and two thirds full. When I'm ready to use it, I run it under tempid water for a couple of minutes (seconds -- just until I can open...

We did one of these near Houston, TX. It was a great time, but I didn't eat many donuts for fear of barfing! That was kinda a bummer, but otherwise, lots of fun - even with hubby's two flats....

How fortunate! I have one or two roads that would definitely improve! As is is, I wander around the lane to spots that look slightly smoother due to wear, but I think it is more of a mirage, and I...

Thanks - but really -- just pure laziness and dumb luck!:D (It does make my husband a little nervous pumping up my tires though.)

If this is a stupid response -- please forgive, but....

I had the screw cap part break off of one of my valves (definitely an "oh sh!t moment), and I was able to screw it back on. (the post...

"Real talc contains asbestos fibers, so obviously it's implicated in all kinds of cancers. I don't think you can even buy it any more though - read the labels, but AFAIK it's all cornstarch now."

Along with Zen's atm machine - VIN number - VIN stands for Vehicle Identification Number! What's really bad is that I actually say this daily at work because if I say what's the VIN? (without the...

Same problem - my seat clamp is metal though. Drives me nuts. At least I finally got it where the range of motion is very small and I can deal with BOTH positions. I would like to be able to...

Sorry for the highjack, but I gotta know....

I do use some powder to deal with friction and minor moisture when I wear skirts, but I don't know how that would work for cycling. I mean, I produce...

Love my camelbak. The first couple of rides, the weight (all of three pounds) really bothered me, but after three or four rides, I became used to it. I freeze "half logs" of ice using crystal lite...

ooh - me too!

My boss always says, "I seen..."! Makes me nuts -- I can hardly bring myself to use the word "seen" now -- even when it is gramatically correct!:mad:

(Though I hope my weird...

Maybe I'm the only one, but I thought it was ridiculous that they felt they had to apologize. From what I understand, the masks were provided by some Olympic committe - not the US, not the US...

When I'm in office clothes and makeup, I can't stand the heat, but, ironically, if I'm working out or something active, I can deal.

We usually wait in the evenings until it's under 100 -- usually...

Yeah, the roadkill makes me sad to see too. We also have lots of flattened armadillos (amoung other more usual stuff). At least dead skunk season seems to have passed:(.



Ha! I love that and...

Love my SSS's, but then I haven't tried many different kinds.

I have a Dolce saddle, and I think it's too soft. I think that's why I'm having tailbone soreness. I'm currently trying a Brooks,...

Yeah, I'm paranoid about running over a rattlesnake:(, but I guess that's really another thread....

Saturday, we saw a javelina and a bobcat -- unfortunately (or maybe fortunately for us - I...

Ack! I want them! Oops, I meant to say, "I need them!";)

Aww, come on, where are the positives? ;)

Delightful husband
Devoted husband
Dashing husband
Determined husband

(okay, I'm running out of positive "d"s....)

When I ditched sugar, it took me about four days to feel decent. Unfortunately for me, all simple carbohydrates affect me like pure sugar - even some whole grain stuff, so I was eating fairly low...
