We're just starting to see a bit of color in the leaves. It won't be long but it's still in the 80's here in the afternoons.

Yup, I'm taking into the LBS this weekend to have it checked out. I'm sure the last thing he would enjoy is a breakdown.
My husband is a runner. I run too but that's really all he's interested in. He owns a bike, but it lives in the shed whereas mine live on a bike rack in the storage room in the house where it's...
I thought the young kids were not buying cars because for whatever reason they have no desire for independence. Maybe it's that their parents are helicopter parents and they just don't mind. I don't...
I might watch it, maybe I read a rather lengthy article in I think The New Yorker because it's such a train wreck I couldn't pull myself away. I wonder how good he could have been on his own, but I...
I think I fiddled with them for maybe 10 minutes in the shop. Someone on the ride Sunday was talking about how hers were really hard to get in and out of and the guy at the LBS lubed them so now they...
I went into the bike shop today for a bell and walked out with shimano road pedals and my first pair of cleats. Until today I've had toe clips on my pedals and just worn old running shoes. I think...

I had a chat with the guys at the bike shop today and they told me the bike is in better shape than I thought. I explained that I wasn't planning to use it as a **real mountain bike** and that mostly...
When I went off to college in the (cough) fall of 1987 my dad bought me a Giant Iguana. He called it my "parking sticker". I rode the heck out of that thing all through college and for a while after...
I work for a big company. One time I got tapped to go along with HR to a career fair event at a uni not too far from here. I really only did it because my husband was looking for work at the time and...
I have an off grid cabin in the mountains. We gave this a try but the batteries don't last. After constantly having to replace them we just gave up on it. Maybe the problem was that we went cheap but...
that is fantastic
I'm a hobby photographer so I'm afraid that my neighbors have seen me doing a lot of strange things like crawling around in the yard with a macro lens looking for bugs.
thanks for posting this
I've been kicking around making the transition to cleats. It's a bit like taking the training wheels off isn't it. My biggest fear is not being able to get my foot free at...
Yea but really if I had an actual stalker, it's pretty easy to find anyone via google maps. It's just not something I'm all that worried about.
I headed out for my usual morning run with the dog. I've done this run hundreds of times. Every time it's 4.3 miles. I like it because we can stay in the neighborhood and there is usually someone...
I'm glad they didn't stick you with paying for it. Rather civilized really and yea I'd absolutely take the bike on the elevator.
How could I leave out this charming little fellow

I wear THE most obnoxious colors when I run because I'm heading out the door early in the morning when its still dark. It was fun during the summer to actually get to wear other stuff, but alas I'm...
please don't wear flip flops - just sayin'
I'm not a fan of those extender leashes at all. When my dog was a puppy a woman in my neighborhood was yammering away on a cell phone while walking a german shepherd on one of those. He charged us...
I live in Charlotte home of the (cough) NFL powerhouse Panthers
This is this one road in particular, Queens Rd West if you happen to be familiar with the city that everyone calls the "tour de...
You KNOW you've gotten this question. I've been a bit surprised at people's reactions when I tell them that I'm getting into cycling. I know there is a lot of animosity towards bikes in this town. To...
Perhaps a bit off topic, but I have a friend at work who told me that her original boss told her that it came down to her and one other person. The other person had some questionable things on their...
