Thank you, NWG and Emily! I am looking forward to this process!
Hi all!
It's been a while since I've posted, but I have been keeping up on reading now and again and am happy to see everyone still sharing ideas and stories here.
I'm in the market for a new...
Update - I never heard back from BikePortland.org, but I found a friend who had cycled from PDX to Hood River. Turns out there's no good way at this time to avoid riding on I-84. Feeling a little...
Excellent - thanks for the tip!
Thanks, Pax!
Hi all,
It's been a while since I've been on here - I lurk and read posts now and then but my kids have outgrown naptime, and I've gone back to work, leaving little time to catch up with the TE...
Hard question to answer without knowing your taste in shows, but I have started watching "Alias" and find it is a good distraction - it has enough action scenes with fast paced music that help with...
Since your date was this weekend, this is too late to help this time around, but something to consider for the future might be nursing pads. They are super thin and soft. I have no idea how they...
That's hilarious, Trek!
I had the same issue a few years back when I started riding long distances on my fairly upright bike with straight handlebars. The good ladies here at TE all strongly recommended a proper bike...
I like 7 and agree with Emily that it the G be a great single stand-out logo. Like when you see the Specialized "S" logo (regardless of how you feel about specialized) you know what it means.
Spam or no spam, I'm with Tulip on the sushi. It always gets me up 1-3 pounds overnight, even if my overall eating that day was low! I attribute it to the sodium and the rice as well. Glad to hear...
So sorry for your loss, Catrin. Take good care of yourself and let others take care of you for a while if you can.
Urinal, schmurinal. This is what you see in a portapotty on an all-women's ride:

What a great ride! The weekend leading up...
Anyone in the Seattle area doing the Cycle the Wave ride in Issaquah this weekend?

Rescue Remedy (a Bach Flower Essence available at health food type stores and even on Amazon) works very well for me when my insomnia is stress-related, with zero hangover the next day. You can also...
Depending on what you want done...Sugarpuss Beauty petite spa on Alberta is great for waxing and tinting and facials. Cute little place, Stephanie is very nice and fun to talk with, and very...
Flash forward 5 years and this is exactly what my husband and son will look like...great shot!
Zoom, you've probably seen these, but if not you should definitely give them a try!

It's a Portland, Oregon company and the socks are super comfy and...
Is anyone doing this ride in Corvallis this weekend? I am going and thought it would be fun to keep an eye out for fellow TE'ers.
I had such a great customer service experience with Schwalbe that I had to share it. My Focus Corrente bike came with Schwalbe tires when I bought it in 2011, and they have been great. Never had a...
This probably wouldn't help once the itchiness develops, but taking a strong daily dose of probiotics during and after taking a round of antibiotics (for a couple weeks after) can help prevent the...
I second Michael Sylvester at Bicycle Fitting Services. He was truly amazing. A good listener, very professional, and incredibly skilled at making a bike work for you.
I had pinkeye a couple of weeks ago, and I was lamenting the fact that my eye looked kind of weird. My 5 year old son told me, "No, your red eye looks really good, Mom. You look like a dragon."
