    Really? Ok, I'll check it out. I've been up close and personal with my neti pot, and I've been drinking lots of juice (cranberry/blueberry...mmmm), water and Echinacea Complete Care tea. I don't know if the tea helps any, but it tastes good to my stuffy headed self.

    Dear university's cycling club/company making the things:
    I would rather like my jersey BEFORE I graduate...
    At least I don't leave slime trails.

    Dear Doctor,

    You could have been more humane when I asked "how soon until I can ride my bike?". Replying "you can't ride a bike anymore, it would be the worst thing in the world for your knee" and then seeing the crestfallen look on my face, maybe you could have shown a smidgen of compassion...you butthead.

    I think I'd find a 2nd opinion They've had my grandma with her very bad knees on an exercise bike as much as she'll let them.

    He was the third opinion... apparently the type of degeneration I have (femoral trochlear groove + patella) is "interesting" so they had three different docs consulting. My doc just got to be the butthead who told me.

    How much do they know about bikes? Have they considered things like very short crankarms, recumbent, ... ?

    Dear Rain,

    I know you are needed this time of the year, and I know it is spring. However, I am paying a good amount of money for this B&B and I came here to ride my bike. I would greatly appreciate it if you could cease and desist operations for the rest of the and tomorrow so I can ride my bike. You can return tonight if you like, but please give me some time today and tomorrow to explore this rail-trail on my bike.

    Sincerely
    Catrin
