Hi Joanie,
Thanks for the input, I really appreciate it. Yeah, I'd have to say I really do want the flat bar with some allowances for adjusting hand positions, and I definitely prefer a slightly...

Hi Joanie,
Thanks for the input, I really appreciate it. Yeah, I'd have to say I really do want the flat bar with some allowances for adjusting hand positions, and I definitely prefer a slightly...
Absolutely agree about the mental and emotional health benefits of our commutes, so important. My husband likes to say the grumpies flow off the back of the saddle after the first couple of miles,...
Hi Everybody,
I'm not a newbie, been riding my steel 2009 Jamis Coda Comp very happily to work, errands, camping, you name it, it carries everything. And without any packs on it with its current...
Kelly, how exciting!! I did see that earlier, and might have considered it, but a group of my friends and I are going to Vietnam-Cambodia-Thailand with Spiceroads. I do hope you go, and report...
Last fall two coworkers and I tried our very first S24O -- in this case, with a fourth coworker, non-cyclist who wanted to go camping too, driving sag later in the day with LARGE tent, stove, etc. ...
Emily, I am totally impressed, I am a chickenliverweenie when it comes to downhills. I ride the 2009 version of the Jamis Coda Comp...

the link didn't show up, let's see if it does this time
so a few years ago I was looking for the perfect trunk, and my very thoughtful husband bought me (online, he doesn't recall where) this Axiom Columbus Journey Series bag, drop down sides, expandable...
Hi Emily,
Just so you know my bias, I live on the N side of Louisville and ride thru old Superior all the time, and work for a company headquartered near Jeffco Airport, and a lot of colleagues...
Great Denver area bike trails start up in Thornton! And they're in the process of extending my east Boulder County trail system out to Erie, welcome aboard! I live in Louisville and work on the...
Lori and Kathi, thank you so much for this! I just realized there's something in my settings that I didn't get notified, so didn't realize your very helpful replies were here til now. My meeting...
I'm in nearby Louisville, but just trying to use my bike more for routine errands, meetings, etc. I have a business lunch in the Old South Gaylord area in a couple weeks, so thought I'd toss my bike...
I picked up a top of theirs in a secondhand store a few years ago, frankly it was the most flattering top I owned til the Skirt Sports Sexy Back Tank entered my life. But then I went into one of...
Thanks, Pax, for the encouragement, it helps. Heard back from the doc today, it seems he agrees with me that the inhalers aren't working, he's scheduled another test, so that's good! Hope to have...
I'm so glad you guys are talking about this, I need a benchmark. I've been trying both albuterol and atrovent for a year -- bicycling, snowshoeing, xcountry skiing, swimming, heck, just walking...
Again, it's whatever works for you. I too just hop on my bike to get to the library, grocery, doctor's, stop by a friend's, and will often just ride in the jeans or cargo shorts I have on, no...
Ours is June 22, give people a chance to rev up (April is still one of our snowier months. We did have a winter Bike to Work day here in Boulder, in January). Anyway, BTW day is huge, it's...
I'm with you! Problem is once I started working from home, the bike rides dropped -- I miss my commute! :) And I travel a great deal. But I'm pretty good down to mid-30s, as long as it's not snowy...
I love this range of alternatives and will check them out. Already have Spokelits, but have been trying to find the Guyot Firefly, it's an attachment for a widemouth bottle that turns it into a...
just checked back in -- wow, there's really a lot of life in this thread! thanks for the well wishes. Intrigued by the pinch test, Malkin, I'd say my flapdown is slow, but need a benchmark. I used...
This thread has been very instructive. This has been my summer of longer rides -- canyon and prairie, lots of headwinds, and while no confusion or hallucinations, I started to have what I call...
hey Tawnya and Jennk13, thought I'd post back, see if you rode.
If you didn't.....My friends and I did, I confess I was one of the final finishers, I've been struggling with electrolyte balance,...
anybody riding the August 29th Venus de Miles?
http://venusdemiles.com/
I rode the 33 mile the inaugural year, going to ride the 51 mile this year, for those who may not know of it but are in...
Hey everyone, thanks for the input. SadieKate, I'd never heard of DeTours, always great to have new resources. 7Rider, you may have hit the jackpot with the Trek one, that looks just like what I...
Thanks for the offer, Tri Girl, but I'll take a pass on the REI model, I'm really sold on the bungee cord on top for fast jamming top layers as it warms up. That's a ncie offer, tho', I had to think...
