I yearn to spring free from all these layers of fleece and gore-tex and recall those summer months when I hung out freely in baggy shorts.<br /><br />Sincerely, Rod.<br /><br />To Rod,<br /><br />I know the winter time can really make me itch for warmer times, and emotionally I get all shrunk and shriveled. But no fear - you just need to thrust yourself out there and get back in the saddle again. In no time you'll be butting heads with fellow members on group rides. But don't get cocky, the holiday season is a time for togetherness. In fact, since we're so close I'll come with you on every ride.<br /><br />-YabbyRon Schafterhausennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4213956784784062266.post-89694727540717149342019-11-27T18:54:55.241-05:002019-11-27T18:54:55.241-05:00Bike Snob,

A word uncommon enough to get the red underlining thing. Had to look it up to be sure; it's actually spelled with an "i" where you have an "a"; I would have expected an "a" and indeed used one at first, but it gets the red underlining either way. As does Lebowski, so shows what they know.<br /><br />Heh, bottles may seem gross, but (male) cyclists in races just pull it out with cameras and sometimes fans around, so whatevs.huskerdontnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4213956784784062266.post-56007656105580694632019-11-27T10:22:00.002-05:002019-11-27T10:22:00.002-05:00As I type this the street outside my window is soa...As I type this the street outside my window is soaking wet, but not with urine.

I'm confident there's ti bikes built for 57mm of reach out there. And when there's no need for the fendies, supple 32mm tires (inflated to the proper PSI) ride like supercharged cadillacs on rails that also handle 2-inch minus gravel with aplomb as well as most common grass conditions.
