OMG, I would kill for a DD!!! I grew up in New England and the last 3.5 years of living in the birthplace of Krispy Kreme was pure torture (NC)!! I had NO DD's around and a KK on every corner. Then I move to the Portland area and the closest DD is 43 miles away!

Starbucks sucks. At least I've got a Peet's within biking distance.


hipersons - can you get a very small wedge to put under the seat in front of the rack? That's how I have a wedge on my classic and it works to hold emergency stuff that you don't need easy access to all the time (spare tube, tire levers, etc).

Edited to add: you can see it in the photo of my commuter on page one of this thread...
