Just wanted to let you know that I am thinking of you and your family zoom-zoom (and it doesn't more far flung than Australia).
{{{{hugs}}}}
This thread gave me the biggest, happiest smile I've had in a long time :):) Congrats to all who have married (and to all those who hope to, I wish you well).
I live in the Australian Capital...
I agree with others that it appears you will likely prefer a t-shape saddle.
I had a Ruby that was reasonably comfortable - not really any pain but some numbness occasionally. Then I got a Jett...
Zoom-zoom - gorgeous looking bike thanks for answering my question. Sadly I don't know of an LBS in my area that stocks that brand - the consequence of Australia being a small market.
I asked...
Which ones are on your short list, zoom-zoom?
Hi, my name is Helen and I've been addicted to buying bikes for around 4 years.
My first foray back into the world of cycling was a Fuji hybrid - I used that for a women's re-introduction to...
I had a similar experience when I was shopping for a carbon road bike. The owner of the store is around the same height as me so she brought in her bike so I could take it for an extended test ride....
I am heartbroken about the revelations (particlularly about Lance) although for the past 12 to 18 months I have been anticipating this outcome. Prior to that I had been clinging to a naive hope.

Pip - (((((Warm hugs))))) I've just recently lost my 18 year old blue Burmese girl so I can identify with your pain and loss although every family and cat relationship is different.
We now have a...
I started peri menopause at around 48 - the worst symptom was 'mashed potato brain'. I took some natural supplements and that helped and then it all just seemed to disappear. Great! - I thought. But...
We faced that awful last trip to the Vet about 2 months ago and to be honest, I think we waited 4 days too long.
Our beautiful blue Burmese girl, Sapphire, was 18 when she was diagnosed with a...
I had a similar saddle sore. It would go away between rides but then pop back up after a ride. My doctor prescribed an anti-bacterial cream, which helped immensely and I thought it had gone. Then...
I haven't ridden in the USA but in Australia the same sort of issues exist and it is very much an 'us and them' situation.
However, I spent two months late last year riding in France and it was...
I agree with the others who have said that you got better service from SP2 - he tried much harder to make sure that you got the right size. But I understand how it feels when you like someone and...
I find my Amira very stiff and unforgiving - particularly on roads that are less than smooth. But mine is the first model they produced - I've heard that the subsequent models weren't so harsh.
Just replaced a 6 year old computer today - it was so slow it was almost unworkable. DP had tried to clean it up to see if that made a difference but it didn't. I don't use it much because I use my...
I'm seriously in love with my Synapse too. It's last year's model with Ultegra. It is so comfortable to ride that it feels like it has suspension. And really responsive too. I'm faster on this than...
And don't be afraid to make it clear to someone you've met who you like and feel a connection with that you'd like to do something with them. A bit like GLC1968 and indysteel's examples earlier. It...
There are ski goggles that are made specifically to allow people to wear glasses underneath but I have a friend who has them and the glasses still fog up from the heat generated by your face.
You...
My first ride on a new bike with toe clips about 18 years ago - came to the first stop, forgot I had toe clips and just toppled over. Never did it again.
With clipless pedals I've fallen once when...
I'm 5'5" and I ride a Specialized Amira in a 51 and a Cannondale Synapse in a 48. I feel more comfortable on the Synapse but I'm not stretched out at all on the Amira. Put them side by side and they...
A saddle is a very personal choice - what works for one person is a torture device for another. I am a fan of Specialized saddles and have a Jett on all of my bikes.
Today I rode for 92 kilometres...
I fly frequently for work - usually at least twice a month. I have access to the Business Class lounge with all the free wine, beer or spirits I could possibly want yet I never have an alcoholic...
