Brilliant and so creative!! Love it!
I live in the Atlanta suburbs and for the most part, don't have issues with cars. Yes, I get honked at probably once a week, but it doesn't really bother me. Whatever. I use hand signals and act...
That's AWESOME!! I'm really inspired to try something like that...
I'm pretty sure he was making a joke of himself in that what he did was "shameful". Pretty much like saying, "I know this sounds racist, but...". I'd post the picture he sent, but I already deleted...
We had gorgeous weather in North Georgia all weekend, sunny with highs in the 60s. I rode 38 miles on Saturday (my longest since I broke my wrist in December) and 16 on Sunday. I was in heaven.
Beautiful cruiser--I'd definately take that to the beach!
I'm feeling kind of pissed off. A male friend of mine who works at a bike shop as a mechanic/salesperson, sent me a pic of their store mannequin (a woman dressed in cycling gear) with dollar bills...
We're experiencing a few days in the 40s and 50s in Atlanta, so I'm definitely taking advantage. Rode for 1 1/2 hrs today, and will ride once or twice over the weekend. Barely ra
od during winter,...
I usually wear makeup each day (at least on workdays), but I remove it if I'm going riding. During rides, it's just sunscreen/lip balm.
Sounds to me like you're taking good care of yourself. Glad you're back in the saddle too. I hope I'm doing centuries when I'm 59--you're an inspiration!!
I understand the concerns of the OP. Having two young kids and already having been hit by a car once, I can certainly empathize with having to decide whether or not road-riding is worth the risk. ...
This!! lol
Seriously, though...riding should be enjoyable. Sometimes technology just makes things worse, not better. Ditch the electronics and just enjoy the ride.
I have a very sentimental attachment to my bike (Buffy), a Giant Avail. She's nothing fancy, but she was my first real road bike (a present to myself for getting sober), I was hit by a car while...
This or baby oil.
Did the 43 mile route with my younger sister who was diagnosed with breast cancer at the age of 26. Beautiful route, beautiful weather. Lots of great people. The ride was hillier than expected,...
I love that your first thought upon seeing the garden shed was"...a house for our bikes!". :p
Congrats on your new bike--it's gorgeous!! When I first started riding, I was so broke after I bought the bike that I purchased a cheap jersey and the cheapest, most padded shorts the LBS had. ...
I am LOVING this weather. We just moved from Florida to North Georgia and now I can enjoy a "real" Autumn!! Today, I rode at 3:00 and it was only 76 degrees. Perfect! The only downside is that...
LOL--and I love the "does this bike make my butt look fast" one, too!
Did Shebeest go somewhere?? I love the SSS short!
Hilarious, and so often true. I was told by a guy at an LBS that, "...when a customer comes in and wants a bike but says he's not into racing, I can just tell. He's not serious." REALLY???!!!
I was just about to get A Walk In The Woods from my library!! Weird!
I'm reading In the Garden of Beasts--it's about the US Ambassador to Germany during Hitler's rise to power. I also started...
I used to be SO into cycling, riding four sometimes even six times a week. Then my husband took up the sport and I got an ankle injury around the same time. While I was healing from my injury, my...
I like the Brooks for looks and for shortish rides. It's a lovely saddle but I wouldn't do a century on it at this point because it's too firm (although I DO like the shape). No cutout, though.

used for 2 weeks. $85 plus s/h in original box. PM me if interested.
