One has to have an ID to access the base. She is too far in the facility to walk from the gate and I wouldn't ask her to anyway. She also has to have the car available for going between their...

My son lives in Seattle and uses Zipcar fairly frequently as he and his wife are car free. For doctor's appointements, large purchases, etc., it comes in handy. Recently, he travelled to Minneapolis...

I have the cape from J&G and got it in February for my birthday. I have found it to be quite useful. Even when it was cold but wasn't raining it helped by blocking the wind, but that also means it is...

I pushed it on the way home last night. Looked like it was going to pour at any minute and I didn't feel like getting wet. It was raining this morning when I walked the dog, but by the time I left...

Conditions were near perfect. 69F, little to no wind, slightly overcast. Rode in high gear more than ever before. Starting my 4th week and the hills keep getting easier. I'm hooked.
