I love the Spinnaker and Breakaway knickers. The Actif ones not so much. Size medium. These were worn once and washed immediately afterwards. In perfect condition. $40 shipped in CONUS.

I haven't seriously looked at recumbents yet but I have given them some thought. I'll continue to explore ways to stay in the saddle as my body ages and changes. I can't bear the thought of...
I wish mine was longer but I extend it on the way home. Today sucked! We're short-staffed so I'm stressed out. My commute is keeping me sane. Someone knocked my bike over in the library garage and...
The hardest thing for me is coming to grips that my mind bites off more than my body can chew. I would love to mountain bike and I miss my flexibility so much! Yoga is painful but necessary. My...
This! Without yoga, my osteoarthritis would dictate my life.

This was at the end of our anniversary ride. :) That vacation was so much fun and so needed. I hated to see it end.
I grew my hair out so I could pull it back. It's kind of wavy/curly/crazy but I get in a half hour early so I have time to figure out what to do with it. Part of the reason I had stopped commuting...
Went on a nice long ride by myself Wednesday evening after work (20+ miles). Today I went on a longer ride with a good friend. I was pleasantly surprised to be able to keep up. She was on a road...
The Rove "gravel bike" is a really comfortable path/tourer-type bike for me. It is less aggressive in riding position than a cross bike. I love that I don't have to even think about uneven spots or...
I'm not sure how it manages to go so fast, but today is the last day of our long-awaited vacation. Yesterday's ride on the Flatirons Vista Trail was a little disappointing. Even though the Rove is a...
If there's any way you can make it work, you will be happier longer with the better bike. I've made do a couple of times and it never really works out. I'm not sure I can answer anything about...
DH and I are in Denver for our 30th anniversary. We brought the bikes and had a lovely 13 mile ride along Clear Creek Trail this morning. :) It has been ages since we've ridden together. Would have...
I do best with Shebeest chamois. I've tried others and always come back to Shebeest. I ride a fairly hard saddle and my sitbones remain happy.
I always arrive at work in a better mood and with a much better attitude about the day if I ride instead of driving. I have really struggled since Dad died last year. This is the best I have felt in...
Thanks! I love it a little bit more each day. I've never been comfortable in the drops and yesterday I realized I rode home most of the way in the drops. There was a brutal headwind for part of the...
I commuted for several years except when it got below minus 20. I always felt better. My attitude at work was better and my seasonal depression was almost nil. Then I had a Series of Unfortunate...
It seems like ages. More than 3 years, anyhow. This new job makes it a little more complicated because of dress code and inflexible hours but I've been ironing out the snags and I'm so happy to be...
Yes. It's the 2016 Rove. It wasn't even on my radar. I was looking at steel touring bikes. It is a little lighter and shorter than the Kona Sutra. It feels quite a bit lighter than my Cross Check. I...
Husband, daughter and I have been playing. It is especially fun in Rapid City because all of the president statues on every corner are pokestops. So is the building where I work. In the evenings it...

I just couldn't make the Cross Check work for my back and neck. I finally went in for a bike fitting (we haven't had a professional fitter in Rapid City until now). I initially wanted to make...
Dredging up a super old thread! 17796 Last year I finally did it. This 52cm. Cross Check followed me home from my LBS. The Soma Buena Vista went to my daughter. I never could really bond with that...
I know this is the reverse of the norm around here but I prefer the S. I have a lightly-used, beautiful honey-brown (darkened a bit with proofhyde) B-67 that I would like to trade for a similar...
Today was even cool and breezy. It was almost cold going in, and pleasant coming home. :) After year-round commuting for several years, and driving for 2, it feels so good to be going through the...
Day 2! :D
And it sure does feel good. I can't believe now that I didn't get on a bike for 2 years! I could practically hear my Kona Dew whimper when she finally had air in her tires again.
