Years ago when I was an associate in a law firm, I got to park in the basement of the building. One morning I got out of my car, dropped my car keys into my purse and set my purse, lunch and "stuff"...

I think all of this just strikes a nerve for me because it is the nub of my greatest fear and uncertainty as a parent. I am a single mom and I adopted my girls, so there is no dad in the picture - I...

No offense, Tuckervill, but it just ain't that simple. Teenage rebellion has nothing to do with going to kindergarten!! It has to do with the difficult transition from childhood to adulthood. The...

Same here with my 13yo daughter. It has been quite a learning experience for me to see what kinds of things her "friends" are posting and saying (some of these kids I know well; some not at all). ...

I bought these Smarty egg beater pedals and never used them. The rails on these are gray, but red and blue are also included in the box. Asking $25 plus shipping.

...

I know it's a long shot that anyone here can use these, but thought I would give it a try. I bought these tires for a bike that had a 24" front wheel, but they were the wrong size. These are Cheng...

Dan & Heather - sent you a PM.

Claudia - thanks for the suggestion. I don't do it exactly like you mentioned (great idea, by the way!!) - I use some free software called "craigspal" that lets me search ALL cities and can even...

I have been looking for a Terry Susan B hybrid for a LONG time! I have kept my eye on Craigslist and eBay and have pursued every one that has popped up on the used portion of the Terry website - no...

Thanks. I think I will try something like what Lisa wears and only worry about clear if I then find out it looks too dark.

Re: cashmere - I had a great thrift store trip yesterday: got 1 pair of...

What do you wear if it is cold enough to fog your glasses, but too dark for sunglasses? My commute yesterday was frustrating because I kept getting fogged up.

Lisa,

I've read your posts about that balaclava before, and I am going to get one. I just got some winter gloves, too, so the only problem area I have left is my feet. I think you are one who...

Sorry, I think this IS in the wrong place - and yes, it is a bit confusing!

I have been looking at buying a Buff. They are clearly very versatile and look like a great piece of cycling gear. I have never had one before so I don't know if the regular ones are really good...

I wish I could make it that simple, but . . . .

I need to transfer "work" from my briefcase to my pannier on the day(s) I commute, but the clothes are what really get me. I need to figure out...

indigoiis - This has been a pain for me as well. The first several times I commuted, it took me so much longer to get ready to go in the morning that I nearly backed out and drove so I would not be...

My position is about level. It "seems" like if I were in a lower position, the Butterfly would be even worse since I felt such pressure at the front part of the saddle. But as I said in the OP, I...

Sorry, I was out of town for a couple of days.

Thanks so much for the ideas. You got me looking closely at the Selle saddles, and there is one that seems to be very similar to my old Fuji saddle...

OK - my rear is definitely telling me something, but I need an interpreter!!

I have been gradually fixing up a nice old steel frame bike to be my commuter. I wanted to replace the old "Fujita...

If the frogs don't find a home, I would love to have them!

Thanks, Karen - you are right - I would have loved to stick with Trek as I spent quite a lot of money on the trunk bag and panniers that work with the "Interchange" system - you just snap them on and...

I have been using my Giant Sedona with the Trek interchange rack for my commute, but would like to try using my old steel road bike instead. It is a very small 1980's Fuji, a Terry-style frame with...

I just had a conversation about this when I visited my younger brother in Boulder. We both remember this very well, but we were really little - still riding tricycles. We tied them up to the fence...

Do you have one of the Terry "Moo" bikes? It would fit right in!!

I'm not officially a wool weenie because I haven't tried it yet. Reading this forum has thoroughly convinced me, though.

I am trying to put together a wardrobe of commute-worthy clothes for...
