    clothing --

    I was able to find a couple of shirts that have been working pretty well for me at Target, in the ladies "athletic wear" department. Paid under $15 for each of them. They don't have the pockets and zippers found in jerseys, but I'm finding that this sport rivals skiing when you're getting started: you need all kinds of stuff!

    Shorts I found at REI, and they were on sale for about $20. Not the best, and when I ride over 30 miles, they're definitely not the best, but they're a great start too! Since I'm riding a bit farther now on a fairly regular basis, I'm starting to look for a new pair of shorts with a bit nicer padding.

    i love Target..

    Today at a hardware store of all places, i found a Bright yellow/green vest with Orange reflective tape and it is all Vented or Holey or whatever you call it. it is made of Holes. it fits over anything, and is not going to make me sweat. So at least the cars won't hit me b/c they don't see me. And my Trainer came by way of Fedex just minutes ago. i need hubby to help me set it up. Well, that's not true, i'm just being lazy right now. i did go out for a few minutes thru the drizzle, and i think i did ok. but i did get myself a bit fatigued, so before i got the nausea feeling, i came home. i took my Rack out of the box, and i am SO ready for the rain to end..

    Welcome to cycling, Colleen!

    Here's a really useful website for your handy hubby and you to help you maintain and repair your bike. http://www.parktool.com/repair/

    I'm not at all mechanically inclined and I've found it easy to use.

    Has it stopped raining yet?
