Hi everyone- I've been MIA for quite a while- just had other stuff going on.

Just echoing what rebeccaC said. Glad to see that TE is being reborn in partnership with Primalwear.

Hi everyone
Been riding to work almost every day- missed a couple days last week because I was fighting off a little cold and had my annual evaluation. I got back in the saddle for the coldest...
I've done a couple short rides this week, chasing a Couch's Kingbird which was way out of range in Arizona, and then today did a 40 mile ride to look for a Least Grebe, also way out of range. I saw...
Hi everyone.... been riding almost every day in November but just haven't been posting. I've been commuting 4-5 days a week and was riding some long rides to prep for El Tour de Tucson last...
Thanks for the compliments on the photos.
We have a guest room here and great riding almost all year long...
One of the rest stops. They've really improved the options. The best was the watermelon slices (not in the picture).

In addition to my near daily commutes, I rode the 66 mile "Willcox Flyer" ride Saturday. I'll post a few pictures:

I don't know where I've been this month. Here it is, August 29 and I've ridden somewhere around 26 days of the month- mostly commuting but rides on weekends too! I won a $50 gift card for my...
I agree with all the above comments about denial and about the issues with the Texas members of Congress. It's just sad for all those who are now homeless and for all the people who will suffer in...
I've been using the folding Gatorskins exclusively for a while. Very rarely do I get flats, in spite of the goat's heads around here. And it's much easier for me to get them on to the rims than the...
I can't even imagine it.... I made a donation to one of the general charity funds listed on CNN. This will take years. And being firmly convinced of the evidence for global climate change, I think...
Yay Emily.
I've been absent a while, but riding lots. Near daily commutes- not today, but most days. I rode my 99th commute on Tuesday and hope to do #100 tomorrow.
I'll check in again...
And Muireann, the cheating was actually so widespread- way more than 3 people had the answers. I only caught 3 for sure.
I did give out some zeros and did a lot of lecturing. I know this year (and my district is a "year round school" so we're actually already in session :eek: - I will not do trade and grade on...
That sounds like a winning/racing mindset! Not exactly the right one for me- my version would be pedal, shift, eat, sleep, pedal shift, eat, sleep, gain a pound, pedal more, shift, eat less, lose a...
Sounds like you've gotten good advice so far. I also think the power meter is not needed for this. I had a coach for a while and she was able to use information from my Garmin, including heart rate...
Hi - been AWOL but riding pretty much every day. I finished the school year with a "PCW"- perfect commute week and over 75 days riding to work. I'm doing the 100 commute day challenge on bike...
I've been riding pretty much every day, commuting every day except Thursday on the way home last week, and then Saturday and Sunday I did recreational/birding rides. 30 miles on Saturday and 20 miles...
Hang in there Emily. Glad you finally got the full picture and have a path forward.
May is flying by!
I have 4 commutes for the first week of May- and one that didn't happen due to a flat tire - 2 failed attempts to fix it and so much panic in having my husband drive me...
I wear size 7 in regular shoes but my road cycling shoes are 39.5 which is more than 8. My feet are kind of wide though....
Sunday I did a short ride by myself, came home and met up with a friend for another 20 miles. We hadn't see each other for a month- she recently went back to work (by choice) after quite a while of...
