Deposit is paid, training has begun :-):D
2 more injections of syn visc in my knee for my osteoarthritis - if I get the clearance from my medical team - I'm going to do it! :D I'll let you know when I put the deposit down!
Any further feedback on IronDonkey tours? I'm ready to push submit - but am a bit scared, as I would be touring with a group - yet by myself. Anyone care to give me the push? :confused:

Re:Duathlon,
I wimped out - I did the relay event. I brought my dad along, and he did the running and I did the bike. Gotta tell you though, I have never seen such hills in all my...
Sorry about that - hit the wrong button!!
Ok, what is the roadkill position??
Sorry to hear that your shoulder is bugging you!

Thanks, Liz.
I will research, and will be equipped with proper info, before I see any "professional"
That last sentance is what really spurred me on!
BTW, New Orleans was our very favorite...
Wow. Liz, you really know your stuff! I do have one leg longer than the other - that was confurmed by my GP last January, when I also received the diagnosis of piriformous syndrome. I then went to...
Hello there,
Now that it's getting dark so early, I find that I'm having to cut back on my biking. So now I'm thinking of getting an indoor trainer.
Your thoughts on which is best, ball park...
WOW! I am so-o glad I found this thread. I've got the same problem, but my buttock muscle is involved as well. Any thoughts mizzliz?
Had a massage a few weeks ago, and that helped a bit, but...
Hi There,
Yes, I guess I wasn't too clear. Now that I mull over your questions, it would be good to know both - how fast for an average speed, therefore taking into consideration both headwind...
For all of the Road Bikers:
How fast can you go, on an open flat road? And how can I get faster? What are the best exercises/workouts to do? I don't have access to any spinning classes. Should...
Stupid Question # 1( - I'm sure!)
But, are those riding clipless riding road or mountain bikes?
Stupid Question # 2
Do the clipless improve your speed?
I have no "bike buddies", and have to rely on my own wits when biking and running. I live in a rural area, and most people know me in the area in which I bike and run, so I feel relatively safe...
Have my fellow Canadains heard the news of this tragic murder? If so, what are we going to do about it? Do we change the way we ride? Are there safety strategies we should be using? How can we...
Thanks for the tip! I'm preparing for a 100 K ride next Sunday, I wonder how long it takes to ship? Riding with my Bro-in-Law and my dad, so wouldn't mind some baggies, instead of lycra!
Take...
Gals,
Any one know of any Canadian web-sites to order stuff? I ordered once from this site, and was happy with my new clothes, but man! Did it ever cost me! I think a $99.00 jacket ended up...
You're all so right! I was just sad about my new condition, now I'm getting mad! Not only does this affect my riding, it's affecting all aspects of my life. As a commissioned sales person, I need...
You guys are so helpful! You're all absolutely right- the pain is in the face, it's horrendous, and the condition truly affects my quality of life! I haven't been on my bike yet this year! But, I...
Just a question - maybe off the wall, but here goes: I have recently been diagnosed with Trigeminal Neuralgia. Also, about 3 1/2 years ago, I had a rollover accident, with a whiplash injury.
The...
Mits,
You are right on with your comments! I'm still digging the whole thing! I thought about doing a Marathon this year, but then thought again - I still am motivated to do my Du's!
I...
I'm from Ontario, too, however the other end of Ontario - Southwestern Ontario.
:D
Hi Ayermail2!
You have helped me in the past, so hopefully I can help you.
Have you checked ebay? I'm sure I've seen some really pink jerseys on there. Plus it's fun to bid on stuff!
Keep...
Marianne,
Thanks for the European insight! Very interesting. Please continue to post, telling us about biking in Europe. I so want to take a tour!
Regards,
Thanks for the comments. Some were hilarious! I guess I'll have to take the leap, in order to improve my speed. Does anyone else participate in Tri's or Du"s? How do you cope in the transition...
