I just had a UTI last week. Unfortunately, it did start to affect my kidneys because I didn't recognize the symptoms early on. Within hours of taking the antibiotics, I started to feel better. I...

I commute every day so count me in for the fall/winter commuting thread.

I did Grandma's in 2003. I would highly recommend it. It's fairly flat. In fact, I can't remember much elevation at all. I agree with goldfinch about the weather. The year I ran it, it was...

Rock star!! Congrats again!

I was on my way home tonight on the bike path and I was moving pretty good. I passed a guy and he yelled, "Hey! Your bike is faster than mine!" Definitely one of the funniest comments I have heard...

I guess this is a pre-commute story. I was getting ready to leave my building to go home. I hit the elevator button. The elevator came down and when the door opened, one of my co-workers was...

I pay $140 for an 8-week season at my CSA. I bought the couples share since my 2 teenage daughters can be picky about what fruits and veggies they eat. It's always plenty of produce for the three...

I had a ferocious headwind along the Potomac and in Georgetown but yes, when I get a tailwind like that, I just want to yell, "Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!"

I'm pretty sure I saw Dorothy and Toto during my commute this morning.

Glad to hear you are back on the bike, blackhillsbiker. :)

Depending on what time you commute - lights?

7 - Your post cracked me up. I can totally hear you telling your story.

My morning commute was a memorable one. It's Cherry Blossom time in D.C. so I have the luxury of riding by the Tidal Basin...

I did the usual (N2) group ride on Saturday morning. Ended up doing 64 miles. Yesterday was an easy 29 miles. Both days were cold but not unbearably cold. I think everyone is eager for spring...

It's beautiful! Are you super excited? ;) Enjoy!

DB - Definitely not wimpy. I probably wouldn't have gotten on the bike if I knew there was going to be a hail storm. Fortunately, I was very close to work when it started. It wasn't fun being...

True! :D

I decided to bike to work even though they are calling for rain and possible thunderstorms this afternoon. I figure - it's spring and that's what happens in spring. I don't really mind riding in...

Happy Birthday, HillSlugger! Sounds like you had a great day.
Today was a recovery day for me - 26 miles. I did an 84 mile ride yesterday with 2 friends and my legs are still screaming at me.

Enjoy, Andie!

Very nice! Enjoy!

Especially when it's mid-February and the temperature is in the mid 50s so you should be riding but you can't. Sigh.

You are right. I was in the car earlier taking my daughter to a class and there were trash bins all over the road. And I saw some cyclists out there really, really struggling and I thought, "That...

When you're outside with one foot clipped in the pedal and you're waiting for your Garmin to locate the satellite and the wind kicks in at 50-60 mph and you can barely keep control of the bike and...

It was my first time on the noon ride in months. What a wake-up call. :D I did get a few nice comments about the bike.
Hope you had a good ride. I can't believe how warm it is.

I know! Yikes. I'm hoping to get out in the morning and if it's windy, I'm hoping for a 60 mph tailwind! :D

Thanks everyone for your nice comments about the bike. It really is sweet. I did my first attempt at speed today and I was pretty happy with how the bike felt. The next test will be hills and...
