    Mimi, one of the employees told us "That's Grants bike".

    What got me about the bag is the front pocket. Yeah, I'm shallow. The blurb in the catalog was something about it being the perfect place for a BART ticket. Light bulb (CFL) goes off over Treks head.

    Right now the routine is:

    skid to halt at BART
    lean bike on booth or another passenger
    cuss and curse as get backpack off of back
    unzip vest
    try to remember which jersey pocket has ticket
    find ticket and swipe
    reverse previous steps and go in.

    then repeat at destination, on the way back ugh.

    Just the idea that everything I need for a commute, clean shirt, bike lock....and the ticket is right there.

    Sold.

    Happy Birthday, Margo!!!

    Oh yeah.. Knot Trek.. or is it Trek Knot? hehehe

    Your trip to Riv bike sounded awesome. Funny I pictured a quaint little shop like they have in downtown Walnut Creek.

    I've always wanted to take a peek at what their retail shop looks like. Thanks for the write up!

    Thanks for the B'day wishes all
    Do you think I should change it to margo51?
    Kind of like Area 51 (as well as that I am now not 49)
    Then next year I could be margo52 (like the bomber)
    When I was 16 of course I was M - 16 ( and being 5 foot 4 I was a Shortened M-16 into the bargain!)

    btw, Now I am such a Tribal Elder and Crone could I be permitted the crotchety request of asking people to note that the "m" is lower case

    Good morning, everyone! I actually started a Saturday with yoga! For some reason, most weekends I just sleep late and don't start my day like every weekday.....it feels better this way!

    K&T you'll have to tell us more of your adventure stories! Rivendell sounds fab and the bik bag is perfect! I can totally see it!

    BM3 we loved Kinky Boots! Of course, I cried, as always. Last night we watched Stranger Than Fiction. It was pretty good, but really nothing compared with Kinky Boots!

    Mimi, I haven't seen the movie you mentioned, but I really have a tough time with accents, too. They make me concentrate soooo hard when I watch the movie, but, hey, then I can't fall asleep!

    Hey, should we start a movie thread?

    'Cuda's toe continues to heal well. YAY! Now it's Ted's turn for his heart checkup. Keep your fingers crossed that there is good news and maybe we can even reduce some of his meds....

    Time to get back to it and get stuff done!

    Hugs and butterflies (hovering overhead to keep the rain off of BM3)

    The butterflies are within you.
