Ha ha ha ha ha..cats ...I'm about to head out to our local Farmer's Market.

Hey adding heart rate and cadence to the ride level's sounds like a great idea!!

alicestrong

Just kidding, just kidding...I'm evil.

Argh... my brain hurt enough without thinking about heart rate and cadence.

"This ride is a high cadence relaxed ride. We will ride at whatever pace and in whatever gear results in 120 RPM and 120 bpm."

That was MY "ride" type of ride - yours may be differnet. And I have to admit, you don't ever stink.

Do any of you have errand bikes?

Once I get used to riding my bent, that will be my errand bike.

Dangit ... won't be able to make it to the train. I'll have to wait another hour. Probably won't be able to see anything anyways with the air show ... consider this my lazy weekend.

All my bikes are beaters...

Hey I'll be at the Oven later today...if all goes as planned .

dauphin

Mine is an Electra Sunny Garcia with a Nexus 7 speed and front basket.

Um... Sacha won't "park." No lock or chain gets near her silky carbon fiber skin. Where she doesn't go, I don't go.

So, I've gotten zero cleaning done. But I have ran errands, including picking up a new IPOD shuffle. It is so cute and tiny. I got it in blue. My last IPOD fizzed out after I sweated all over it. I will remember with the new one to dry it off.

I talked to my Dad and he got new shoes (specialized) and pedals. I want my shoes, NOW! Anyone know where I can go in the Valley for specialized shoes? Or do I have to call every bike shop there is?

I feel like the cat in M.E.'s avatar.

I love my shuffle....hasnt died from sweat yet...And I sweat alot..I have a arm band...sits neatly under a jersey sleeve..easy to get to the controls...


I thought you were doing SIDI's????

Edit...montrose bikes is a specialized dealer...up on honolulu...

heddywouldgo

+1 for SIDI's. They're the shizznits

My shuffle - like my cell phone - is ancient. But both have been indestructible so I'm afraid to replace it with a more sophisticated product.

I've dropped my shuffle in a cup of coffee, stepped on it numerous times, had it nearly swallowed by a golden retriever, left it in 140° car in summer, even ran a vacuum cleaner over it.

merider1

I look like the cat in my avatar... Although, I am going to do an hour ride around the RB. It will bore the hell out of me, but I'll get some exercise in. I'm such a slug right now.

merider1

You beat me.

Happytime

Truth is, you only want me to beat you.

merider1

No, the SIDIs were so uncomfortable when I tried them on. I have duck feet with a very small arch. I loved the way the $250 all carbon Shimanoes felt, but they do not offer heel replacements and I know my luck. I'll buy the Shimanoes and the heel will go bad within a year!

So, I'm hoping that the specialized (which do offer heel replacements) will feel as good as the Shimanoes did.

Hmmmm.....maybe I'll head up to Montrose before picking up my bike.

merider1

Where have you been, woman!!! And how's the riding coming? I'm assuming you are all healed up?

merider1

You are clearly not a responsible Shuffle owner. People like you should not be allowed to own Shuffles.

merider1

Well, that would be nice, yes.
