What would you wipe your hands on after you patched a tire? Black shorts are PERFECT for that!

That looks similar to the bike parking where I work, but I'm unable to use it because I'm not able to lift my commuter bike up to get it in the hooks. Does anyone else have this problem?

Check out Eugene, Oregon.

My husband got me the monkey light last year for Christmas, and I LOVE it! I haven't done any of the programming, I just turn it on and let it run random patterns. It's very bright, and I feel a lot...

@KnottedYet: Great suggestion (Free Range), and I will do so!

@jdubble: Wow, those sweatpea bikes are great, but way out of my price range at this time. Awesome for browsing and dreaming though. ...

Oh man, I *wish* I could go with a 3 speed, but what I meant to say was a triple chainring. I should have been more clear, I apologize for that.

What I would love is a bike that looks like a...

Anyone have any recommendations? I see too late that Globe had one, but they're not making them this year (I might still see if I can get one though).

Any other models I should look at?

Thanks...

Mine was renting cruiser bikes and riding around Versailles when the Mr. and I were in Paris last month. Perfect summer weather, lovely scenery. It ended up being my favorite day of my whole European...

I'm another one who uses spd on both my commuter (hybrid) and road bikes. I do have different shoes though - standard mtn bike shoes for most commuting, keen commuters for summer commuting and...

Just curious - what do you mean by "start on the island"? Are you spending the night there?

I did this ride a few years ago, and am thinking about doing it again this year. It was fun! Of course, that year the weather was fantastic. I'm going to wait and see what the rain situation is...

My two favorite cold-weather items are my Castelli Battiti jacket and my Terry Coldout tights.

Another smartwool sock fan here as well.

For warm weather I really like Descente socks, they fit...

My husband commutes from Seattle to Kirkland, and puts his bike on the bus across 520 twice a day with no damage that I've heard of. His is, however, a pretty beefy frame. But ti is tough, right?

I wear glasses too, and I find that a standard cycling cap works well for me to keep most of the rain off. There will still be some, but it won't be as bad (unless the wind is blowing the rain...

I had a pair of "transitions" (they used to be called "photogray") sport glasses made, and they are perfect for any situation. No more carrying extra glasses!

I found I'm better at climbing, and better at not stopping pedaling as I raise my bum off the saddle to go over bumps or potholes.

Yep, if you had a long torso you'd already know it. You'd find that shirts are often too short, and jeans are often too low-cut.

My example - I have the same inseam as you and I'm 5'6"! *Very*...

I have a pair of Sidi Genius road shoes that accept SPD cleats, and I love them. I have SPDs on all my bikes, and it works well for me.

That's classic cycling - men are the standard, women are other. I love when you're looking at a cycling clothing site and they have two top-level sections: "Clothing" and "Women's Clothing".

I am with you on this one. I am in LOVE with the Zabriskie US Champion jersey and I would buy one in a heartbeat if they had one with a women's cut. sigh.
...

I keep my front wheel slightly under-inflated compared to the rear for exactly that reason. I was having a lot of issues with my hands, and this really helped for me.

Like Msincredible, I wear mineral makeup too. SPF 30, no running when you sweat. And if you want to rinse your face part way through a ride on a hot day, you can just carry it in your back pocket....

I have a pair of Descente arm warmers that fit really well for slender women's arms.

I like waring leg warmers on my morning commute in the summer. It's often 45 degrees in the morning and 70 when...

Did you actually make it up the entire Muur-Kappelmuur? If so, congratulations! That's an unbelievably difficult hill! (For those of you who don't know, it maxes at over 19.5%, and the steepest part...
