    That, or Pill Pockets always worked with our cats.

    FIV...oh, I am sorry. But I have known some pretty geriatric cats with FIV. I think if they are kept indoors that they can fare pretty well,...

    No muscle definition, whatsoever.

    Wrist was good, thankfully. I fell on the other side, but most of what suffered damage were shoulder, hip, and lower leg/knee. It happened too fast to do the sort of hand-out to stop myself that...

    We have too much going on in June...kid has a 3 day class trip that we're chaperoning, then 2 weeks later we head to OH for DH's grandma's memorial service. My wrist is still not fully functional,...

    This sounds similar to the group I've ridden with. There is a leader, but she's not particularly assertive...she is also chummy with the hammerhead woman who was pulling.

    So the plot thickens. ...

    Ha, it's tempting!

    Actually this thought had crossed my mind. One of DH's co-workers will sometimes ride with us and she's quite un-fond of this woman, as well (I suspect most of us don't like...

    I wonder how far riders in our situation could even get with a suit. We definitely have witnesses who stated at the time that they didn't see her point at the hose. And she even said "oh, I was so...

    Nope, just a casual group. Most of these women don't ride competitively. The group is generally more into doing tours and centuries.

    For realz. I was still so stunned from the trauma of the crash that I couldn't even craft a response to that...I mean, what response is there, really?!

    You know, I have to wonder how many other accidents she's caused in her decades of riding? I've not failed to mention her name to people when they ask about the big road rash on my left leg and...

    She actually had the nerve to tell my friend that it "isn't really all that expensive to replace a frame." Can you believe that sh!t?!

    ...2 riders can end up injured and bikes damaged/destroyed. Ask me how I know this...?

    So Tues. night I joined a regular women's ride that I've frequented for >3 years. There is one particular...

    It could also be that your skin will simply take longer to shrink down a bit than your fat cells did, so be patient. I think a lot of people find that when they lose weight fast that there is a lag...

    I have no specific treatment advice, but our Thor BEGS for prednisone...because we mix it with a packet of FortiFlora and a tiny bit of water. He licks the bowl clean. That might be one way to...

    We have a 1UP, since it was the best solution for carrying at least 2 fat bikes (will likely be 3 in the future, once my son is too big to share mine). Great company and so far we really like the...

    I'm OK with the thought of just sticking with what I know I can do, for now. I'm really eager to get back to CX, too...what freaks me out is dodging trees. The women who put on the free clinic this...
  19. Mostly back after being semi-AWOL - but my off-road headspace is meh.

    After breaking my right wrist while mountain biking (my best ever day on knobby tires, prior to the crash) in late Nov. I kinda gimped away with my tail between my legs for a while. Once I was able...

    That is really good advice, too. I've found that playing with the positioning of the mechanical stuff on the handlebars can really make a world of difference.

    I don't think it's super aggressive. I've done 2 rides across the state of MI and numerous centuries in reasonable comfort. I really like mine.

    The only bike I've owned that didn't give me a hard time moving up to a bigger front ring is my mtn. bike with a Shimano triple -- it has a really light touch in every respect. Road, mtn, and CX...
