All 4 of my bikes I bought used, and I love them all (equally--or so I tell them :D). One from the LBS, one from a friend (it was too big for her), and the other 2 off Craigslist. One was not ridden...

I also have a pink atmos helmet and it doesn't match anything I own, bikes or clothes. I'm fine with that.

Only $25 for running a red light? That doesn't sound like much..... Is it the same for a car running a red light? Just curious.

Nice! What a sweet husband :)

So, are you gonna race it? CX/kermesse season is almost upon us :cool:

Good for you! I've been wanting to do this for so long.

Michael is supposed to be amazing! I read about him on BikePortland a while back and was impressed. A friend went to him and had a great...

Yeah, I just read that with my morning coffee. I think I have to send it to my mom!

Hi Bikergirlsj,

Sounds like my vision is similar to yours. I can see pretty well without my glasses/contacts, but it's things like driving, or reading the board in class that I really need them...

What a great story to read as a drink my morning coffee. I think you're very inspiring indeed! and btw cute polka-dot socks. (I have them too, hehe :D )

It's pretty sad that he's only 21 and already such an angry violent person. :(

That bike is awesome!

The bikePortland coverage of this story is pretty good. Over 200 (less hostile) comments last time i checked:...

Bleh....My stupid wrist has started hurting. :( So I'm going to try to take this week off riding in hopes of it getting better. Ah but it's SO SO SO nice out....maybe i could ride with just my left...

Buses, trash trucks, cement trucks etc. are killing machines. :mad: Even if you have the right of way, please ride defensively when you see (or hear) a large truck. The driver often can't see you, or...

That's exciting, Deb! Congrats! :) You're gonna love the faster speeds with the new bike, and I'm sure you'll figure out the gearing pretty fast. One piece of advice I'd offer: It's very important to...

My BF just bought a used SL with ~5000 miles, just the rear wheel/hub for $800. And he was really happy with that price. Based on this, I'd say $900 is probably a good price for yours. Just to...

I'm 5'7.5'' and ride at WSD 54 cm that fits great. Even though I'm somewhat tall, I like the shorter reach of WS. Also, if your friend is new to road bikes, a shorter reach may help her feel more...

Hey Sheesh, I'm in the same boat as you. I wasn't very good last season, but I had such a great time. So i'm definitely gonna do it again, and this time I'd like to do better (I mean I WILL do...

Jolt, I also have had many dreams where I've forgotten to pack for some trip. Or where I'm running late for a bus or a plane.

And in the few dreams in which i can fly--it's always like swimming...

I also have had reoccurring storm/twister/tornado dreams :) ...pretty much for my whole life. They aren't terribly scary these days, but they scared the s**t out of me as a kid.....Honestly I think I...

Wow, that is REALLY disgusting. I even bought oreos at the store tonight. Now I'm not sure I want to eat them. (but i love them :( )

Of course, like everyone else said: EXERCISE ! :D

And also, don't forget to eat your fruits and veggies. Lots and lots of them.

This summer will be 3 years for me. It was definitely my bike-loving super active BF who got me into it. (And I'm 27 btw)

Wow, that must have been unbearable, having a bike that awesome (and new!) and not being able to enjoy it like it deserves! I'm glad things have turned around for you two.

And I love the matching...

Beautiful!. There's something wonderful about green bikes, wouldn't you say? (Though i supposed i'm biased cause i have a green bike :D ). I'm sure you 2 will be having fun together.

Tons of great touring journals and resources. I bet someone there has done a similar trip.

Have a great time! I'm super jealous :)
