It's still two years out, but my husband and I are in the beginning stages of trying to plan a trip on a ferry through the inside passage using only our bikes for transportation on the various...
Good one Oakleaf. A few weeks ago a driver quietly snuck up to about a foot away from my left side and then stomped on the accelerator, made me nearly jump out of my skin. I vowed never to go on a...
I have tried Tanita and I liked it but it wore out fast. I have one by Omron that I thought I would like but it doesn't have a backlit screen which I need on a dark morning. I would like the body fat...
I'm having a challenge with the 5 pounds I gained since last Christmas, but I know I'm not always eating correctly. Just seems less forgiving since I turned 50.
I'm still a little ambivalent about mountain biking. Originally I wanted us to use them as a way to get stronger for our long road rides, by using the mountain bikes to climb knarlier hills. But I...
I did have mine trimmed down I was accustomed to the width of my 26er so the bike shop modified my new bike's handlebar to the same width.
If you're new to beer and haven't cared for it in the past, but somehow find yourself in a situation where you HAVE to try one, I would recommend a Kolsch style like Bike writer said. Very drinkable,...
Oh I can't forget Tri-city brewery in Bay City Michigan. They have the nost fantastic IPA ever! It is truly a beautiful thing!
No, not saying that at all.
I'm a Lance fan. I really have no idea why. I think all this is getting to the point of ridiculousness. Besides, if he did it they all did it.
If you live in Michigan, there is Bells, Arcadia, Shorts, AnnArbor brewing, Mt. Pleasant, Founders, New Holland, and several smaller ones I've probably had but can't remember the names. New Holland...
Smilingcat, I have a lot of respect for you for realizing it wasn't going to work and doing what's best for the dog. Sooner or later the rescue organizations dishonesty will have legal implications...
I would probably have someone go with me who's not afraid of dogs, like my husband. I would first go up to the person's house and tell them what happened. We actually did this once. I talked to the...
I think I'm going to make more of an effort to eliminate all white flour and change what I eat for breakfast. I can probably reduce or nearly eliminate most of the sugary junk food from my diet....
Yeah, me too.. I'm curious about which foods you eliminated. I have a feeling dairy and wheat may be some of them. I had an anaphalaxis (sp) episode as a child, and I get winter hives. I have...
I was going to search for a thread on this very subject. After a really long ride my lungs burn real bad. They might have always done that, but for some reason I'm just now noticing how after a ride,...
Me too, and I try to keep my facebook post on topics important to me, but not something as Grave as the subject we're talking about usually. There just isn't really an ability in my tiny little mind,...
I didn't even know about that one. I don't read our local paper but it wouldn't have that in there because it's a crappy paper. I think racial violence is so dangerous because it happens more often...
We were advised to eat the GU they handed our before the last hill. EEWww! It was all I could do to keep it down! It was a super hilly ride. I was quite surprised!
Yes, it was Susan G Komen. There were a lot of rest stops but generally our ride time is around 7 hours at best, so you're doing great!
NY Biker, can you get the Parent Plus loan? My first kid wasn't offered this option and we got a private loan in her name to cover the extra that the fafsa didn't get for us. Unfortulately the...
I think if there's a bear involved, running would be part of that scene:D
Which one did you do? I did one yesterday too! Same issues, wind, hills, but not nearly as fast of a time as yours!
I've been camping near there. Guess I'll have to get on that trail now that I have a mountain bike!
