I commute 15 miles each way. 30 miles per day/four days a week.

I actually started my commute this week not realizing it was bike to work week. It just so happened that this was the week that the snow finally melted in Fairbanks! It has been a really nice ride...

So I am curious if anyone lives or has lived anywhere that the recommended bike route is to use the sidewalk?! After just learning how to ride in traffic, it seems that there is a whole new set of...

Check out what the Keweenaw Adventure Company in Copper Harbor and see what they will be selling at the end of the season. I used to work there, so I know the bikes are well taken care of and can be...

Starfish,
I am not in any way dismissing your fears or anxiety. I know this is going to be a tough ride, but remember you have trained hard and just do the best you can. Try and relax.
That said......

I had the same problem. If it is the same thing this stretch will hit it in just the right place...

I actually tried to get a Long Haul Trucker, but because of all the press they are getting, they are pretty much sold out everywhere. When I bought my bike in May we sat down with a list of all the...

I had asked to join the last time, but was excluded. I think this is only for the people who have been here for a really long time. :(

You can always go used. I bought my 2006 Trek 1000 used for $325. It belonged to a guy who used it only as his race bike. It was like new. Check Craig's list and E-Bay. You can definately find some...

When I first started riding it was mostly commuting and running errands during the week with maybe one 20 -30 mile ride on the weekends. I too wanted some goals to work towards, so I looked at...

After work the weather was looking rather unpleasant. I had a bit of a slacker weekend, so I really felt the need to ride. I didn't want to ride in the rain. So, I said to myself I'll just go out and...

I too have started riding at night. I used to ride in the morning, but it just wasn't working for longer rides. Lately, I get in between 9 and 10 and I find that I am just not hungry after 3 to 4...

Oh wow! I love these...
You are right though, many of the good ones are sold out!

I didn't see this post.

Michigan is a big state. What part are you from. I still have a lot of friends in all parts of the state, many who ride. More mountain bikers than road riders, but maybe I could help if you narrow it...

Hey Jeni-
Where in the U.P. where you from? I grew up in Houghton and went to High School there. I called Copper Harbor home for a long time. I have also lived in Grand Rapids, Lansing, and...

The information everyone has given about the Coho is correct. I take my bike over every other week and have never had a problem. If you put the back wheel in the rack it doesn't move around nearly as...

What a great report. I know how tough that road is. Way to go!
Sorry I missed you. I didn't get out of work until after 5pm. Hope to catch up with you soon.

We have them here too! Only one really, most are pretty nice. They are usually accomodating when the bike rack is full, which I am really thankful for, there are many times I would have missed my...

Anyone heading out for this? You get discounted admission if you ride your bike.

It is July 12. Does anyone have that link again?

I was just wondering who is going to the Floyd Landis Seattle book signing. Does anyone know if there are any additional special events associated with the book signing. I'm thinking about renting a...

This guy rode the whole 45 miles of the Tulip Pedal:

Well, I will be doing my first Century at the end of August. The Portland Century. http://www.portlandcentury.com/
I am hoping that I will want to do a whole lot more after that one. I was just...

It always takes my BF way longer as well, even though I usually get dressed and pump up both of our tires. Lately, I have been able to convince him to let me leave as soon as I am ready as he is way...
