Well, I shall shame myself with this post. Yesterday, when dropping Lola off at the LBS, so that they could install her new Brooks saddle/grips, and do some other minor stuff, I will admit that I rode on the sidewalk some of the time. I did so, because some of the route was hilly, and I am still working to get myself into shape, so I tend to get winded easily (partially due to me being a 3 mo. early premie & having some breathing issues throughout my life). I took to the sidewalks, just to be safer, although, I generally take the bike lanes 90% of my riding time.
