It's on my calendar to do this year!

A guy that rides in a group I ride with has a bike radio. It mounts on his top tube and uses bluetooth to play tunes from his smart phone. I can't remember the name, but he said they no longer make...

Definitely have to remember those tips this weekend!

Great farm-to-table stuff too! HA!

Same thing happened to me. The batteries went out on my scale in the fall, and when I finally changed them, it wasn't pretty. Up 15 pounds, and I was guessing 10. UGH.

I can't maintain my weight...

I did another organized ride, a poker run for the Lion's club. This weekend it was 37 miles, but with hills, well hills for this flatlander. Kicked my butt, but in a good way. Much more humbling a...

It was. Almost perfect! I was concerned on Friday since it was so foggy, glad it cleared by the morning.

It was the first time I have done that one.

Kudos to your friend, that's impressive.

I did my first organized ride of the season. Ocean to Bay ride in Delaware. 50 gorgeous sunny flat miles will only a little headwind.

I didn't even think of the altitude issue! I did my first century with TNT and it's 99.9% flat and the coach told me the Tahoe ride isn't any harder. I find that hard to believe. A 8 mile climb?...

I thought it was called Dead spot? Whichever it is, my pedal stroke is a lot smoother!

I took a leap of faith in getting a smaller size, and I am pleasantly pleased. Obviously.

I see you're "tackling Tahoe" One of these years I want to do that with Team and Training. Hills scare...

I posted recently about my issues with toe overlap while waiting for my new crank to come in.

After a painful waiting period, I got my bike back with my shiny new 165 crankset. I upgraded to a...

A little off topic, but I downloaded Adblock - it's an extension for browsers and it's wonderful. I see no ads on websites now. Doesn't seem to affect speed. For instance, on the free version of...

I just learned about Daily Mile http://www.dailymile.com/. It doesn't contribute to charity, but it's a nice simple site to track workouts.

I wanted an upgrade to a shimano 105, and they ordered an Tiagra (?). Now you have me paranoid that is what I will hear next. I know they have a 165 dura-ace in stock, but that would be an insane...

I'm not sure how you properly measure them, I think on some the size is marked. You can just change the crank, but it's not a cheap endeavor, depending on what you get. Originally I just needed the...

I have a black men's 7.3 FX and my best friend told me it looks like a police bike. I hadn't thought about girlying it up until I saw this post. I love the idea of a pink bottle cage.

I just took it out for a 12 mile ride. I got on the bike and the saddle felt high, and I figured it was because I had been riding my hybrid. Happened to look down and there was red tape around the...

I would love to do something like this one day.

How does one go about training for that? I've done one century, but can't imagine doing that sort of mileage daily.

Knees are my achilles heel. :-) I have not had any ankle or calf issues at all. Most of my knee problems I believe come from my IT band - it's 99.9% on the outside of my knee when my seat and cleats...

Yes, it's strictly temporary. I'm actually getting 165 crank arms put on (previously had 170), but they felt so bad with the screw up, they put on a crank they had laying around. I'm not sure how my...

Currently I have a crank that's looks like it will cause my toe to hit the tire when I turn. I ride with clipless pedals.

I stupidly stripped the pedal threads and then the LBS failed to order...

Ruby is sold!

Here are some photos of the Ruby.

Now that I finally have a comfortable saddle thanks in part to a good bike fit, I'm purging the rest of the saddles in my house.

1. 2011 Fizit Vesta saddle. $70 including shipping to lower 48...

Beautiful. Thanks for sharing!
