thanks much. All ideas happily received. It has been raining for 7 weeks here in Maine so I am hoping by the time I am on my way, I will have decent weather.
I am driving from Maine to Idaho via Wisconsin in August and will have a bike with me; I am bringing my cross bike so that I can do both a bit of road and trail (smooth, hard) riding. Nothing too...
Had rotator cuff surgery on 19 May, along with removal of a bone spur. It was all arthroscopic--which I hope speeds recovery. The tear was "small", a result of whacking a big block of ice while...
If you like pumpkin, here is a much lighter version of pumpkin pie and really tasty!

Bake a 9 inch pie shell
Blend well in a saucepan:

Fair question--you are right, sizes can be crazy. I usually wear 14 or sometimes 16 depending on how I like something to fit. I laid the GE jersey down with a Pearl Izumi jersey on top of it and the...
Due to the currency exchange rate, sarmy decided not to buy the jersey. So it is still available. It is really neat looking, and it aggravates me that it is too long for me!
sarmy, I will pm you
yup, I know Ground Effect is good about returns, but it got lost in the "shuffle of life" and did not get returned, but thanks for the mention!
That's it, that's it!! Oh, thank you so much. That is exactly the one I saw in Bicycling Magazine--I covet one for an extended bike trip around the country (if I can talk my DH into it, and maybe...
I bought a Ground Effect (New Zealand company) long sleeve jersey, Starfish model, women's large, but I am short and the sleeves and overall length are too long.
Check it out on their website ...
Thanks, I tried the toy hauler, but did not come up with quite what I was looking for. I want a small motor home type vehicle with the storage box built in sort of like a little extra room.
Maybe...
A year or 2 ago, I read an article in Bicycling Magazine about a company in Ohio or Indiana (I think) that customized small motor homes on Ford, Dodge, GM chassis with bike boxes built in the rear...
I'm signed up for the 50! Hope it's good weather, as I am thinking of camping in a nearby state park (not to mention for the riding).
I am fortunate to live a few miles from the base of Sugarloaf, moved here 14 years ago when my son was a freshman at Carrabassett Valley Academy (he is now an alpine coach at another ski academy)....
Have you looked at the Bicycle Coalition of Maine website re: this ride? www.bikemaine.org
By rep, there are a variety of super routes.
I was going to do it this year, but got sidetracked with...
thanks for the tips so far...I am a strong believer in zip ties as I have found that when I use them on luggage they are rarely cut!
I want to learn to take the bike apart and reassemble by myself...
Could someone help me out with a reference to a good set of instructions for dissassembly of a bike to pack it up for shipment in a bike box (for airline travel). I am going to buy a bike box but...
These shoes are not available anymore; they have gone to their new home!
I sent a return PM to you, imanewcreation
I did a nice solo 25 mile ride on the coast of Maine after deciding that I had a hankering for a lobster roll. I drove from the western mountains to the coast, Moose Point State Park, parked and...
I have a pair of Specialized Comp mountain bike shoes which I will give to someone who would like to try going clipless. They are size 41/8.5 US womens. They have spd cleats in them now. They are...
Here in the snowy mountains of western Maine (and we got 9 feet of snow here at Sugarloaf in April this year), I did not start riding until very late April this year. I have logged about 600 miles...
I would be glad to send my cracked helmet to you (no postage refund needed) if it convinces kids to be safe! My recent crash was not nearly as dramatic as many described above but was still...
I was riding into a seasonally closed rest area near where I live, one where the wire which holds warning signs has been sagging on the ground and where I have been riding over the wire where it is...
