    I have 2 trainers that I will bring. They will fit most skewers but if you know you are special needs.... well you get the idea.

    speaking of bike fitting; after i did the Chilly hilly i had rather persistent hand pain. I also noticed that my inclinometer was "off" by quite a bit. This week I reset my handlebars so that the inclinometer was level again and PRESTO! my hand pain went away.

    eeek!
    just because you got fitted, doesn't mean that it is going to STAY that way!!!

    Isn't it really neat how a few adjustments make a world of difference?! I was professionally fitted on my bike 5 years ago and I have everything marked. So when DH breaks down the bikes every six months for maintenance it goes back exactly as was. I can ride for hours and still feel great afterwards.

    Open Invite?

    Hey all. Is this open to newcomers? I just discovered I have that morning off. I know LITTLE about my bike except that I love to ride it. I would be interested in learning a lot more! And in meeting everyone. I need to be back to the north by late afternoon, but may just be able to make it down there. Would that be okay? I don't want to crash a party!

    I think all people that are coming should be prepared to make some kind of donation to the gals who are putting this on. If there is no tip jar I will bring one.

    Everyone's invited, but please let Knot know you are coming!

    Jesvetmed, I look forward to meeting you!

    Oh, I just read through this whole thread and an unimaginably jealous! Alas, I can not make it to this wonderful party and bike fitting and meeting of bike goddesses!

    If it's at all possible, please post descriptions, and photos if you can, of the yoga and stretches, too! I'd like to know which yoga poses will most contribute to a healthier and more efficient position on the bike.

    I'm sending lots of butterflies to you for the day. You will all have such a great time!

    Hugs,
    ~T~
    The butterflies are within you.
