As a baby, I wouldn't drink milk. The doctor told my mom to try skim and apparently that worked. I spent the first 45 years of my life avoiding 'creamy' things (whole milk, cream, yogurt, sour...

Where you stay can be pretty open as there is pretty good public transportation and bike-ability just about everywhere. The only big hills are between Portland and the westside (where I live) but...
Hey - that's really similiar to mine but for the color!

Oh, and I did want to mention that I was discussing this with a friend the other day...how it's really white up here. My world is...
This makes me look for a 'like' button!
I just recently dyed my hair partially teal and a good portion of it is shaved to a '2'. I cannot wait to go to the corporate offices of my company (in...
This.
In fact, differing opinions on basic lifestyle choices (and people's need to share) is ultimately the reason we left Greensboro, NC for the PNW. It's amazing how where you sit on the...
Can't wait to see you!
My first question is - will you be bringing bikes? That will shape a lot of what I/we would suggest in terms of things to do. Plenty, plenty, plenty to do without them to...
I actually find myself telling people my age (or at least the range by saying something like "being in your 40's" etc) purely because most people assume I'm much older than I am. I was on a tour...
I'm finally selling the Terry Classic that has been in my possesion for more than 10 years! I was told that it's a 2004, but I'm not 100% certain. I bought it from a woman who had put all of 64...
I have tiny ear canals and I've never been able to wear ear buds that either don't fall out, or don't hurt because I've jammed them in there. I think for me, it's not just the size, but the shape of...
Oh dear, that's too bad.
Thanks for letting us know, Salsa.
My hair is significantly thinner than it was 20 years ago but I have so much of it, that I'm not complaining. The loss is more noticeable when my hair is long as the strands don't just fall out...
I had to break in my lovely mixte by riding in the rain on Monday to go pick up my car (long story...but I was stuck at home with no car and no one to drive me so I thew on my rain gear, pulled out...
Count me in...though at this point, I'm struggling with my goals. I still have weight to lose but I've been sitting at my same weight for a little less than a year now with no real focused effort to...
I'm dumb. I went for a run on Sunday because it was chilly and dreary out (my favorite run weather) and my husband didn't want to ride until the afternoon. I was enjoying the cooler temps and since...
My beauty! Her name is Stephanotis.

Oh, I missed this thread too but I'm glad you got the bike!
I had a bike that had a bar end shifter for the front and a brifter for the rear...on the same bike. That was fun! Actually, it was...
Thanks for all the hints, Oak! I've never done any blister prevention for running before (mostly because I don't usually have blister issues), so this is very helpful. I was ready to dump my shoes...
Maiden voyage on my newly finished mixte, this morning. I've done a couple of recreational rides on her, but this was my first commute with panniers. It was lovely! She actually felt more stable...
Great job getting it done, Oak...and fast, to boot! Nice!
I ran the Portland Half Marathon on Sunday. I had another friend running the half and two more doing the full, so it was a fun day. I...
Hey All!
I've still been remiss about getting in my weekday runs but I did manage 11.5 yesterday in prep for a half marathon next Sunday. I needed the longer run for confidence as my running has...
We have a program that does all types of things including offering discounts on health insurance rates if you quit (or don't) smoke and for improving your health markers (or maintaining good ones)...
Great job, BikeDutchess! Congrats on your first half!!
I did my 9 mile training run on Saturday in our last (hopefully) HOT day of the year. It was 95F and humid (for us), so I was a little...
I can't help but wonder why it took this woman so long to figure this out? I'm the same height, and I struggled with bike fit for the first two years of my riding because I couldn't get comfortable...
Oooh, puppy! This thread just improved exponentially with the addition of a puppy! ;)
He/she is adorable! Name?
I'm in training for another half marathon in October. It's a new one for me...the Portland Half. I have friends coming in from out of town to run with me (some doing the full), so it should be a...
