Im going next week to take a bike repair clinic at one of the local shops - maybe someone near you has one of those!I wouldnt know WHAT to do with a flat right now - except to pick up the cell phone - do you think roadside assistance would come out for that?

Doesn't it feel wonderful to just get on the bike and GO????

Going on a group ride really helped my confidence level in traffic too - 2 days after the first group ride I ever did, I was out riding major roads in the middle of the day - probably not the smartest thing but I came home feeling as though I had conquered something!

And retail therapy...well thats the best and ain't TE a grand place to shop??? New cycling gear and clothes beats anything else anyway! You can NEVER have too much of any of it!

<HIGH FIVE!>
