Leo, Thank you! I think Stanton and Suzie have offered, so I might take him up on their offer at least initially, so as to spread myself around and thus remain welcome in Austin :o) Soon... I think the conference is mainly for BikeEd people.

Hey - Y'all come and celebrate the return of our own Bike Friday
galfromdownunder, Lynette Chang.

POTLUCK - bring a little something to share, especially something easy
to eat when walking around or balancing that damned plate on your knees
(you know what I mean).  Yes, dips count.
SANGRIA - Sue will make pitchers of Sangria Blanca for a refreshing
summery drink.  We have plenty of wines to share.  If you want
something else . . . .  we will have a cooler available with ice.

TIME:  Milling around and snacking will begin at 6:30 PM and go to
after dark.  Come when you can.

ENTERTAINMENT: We intend to show one of Lynette's new movies when it
gets dark enough in the living room.   I expect to show "Route 66",
but, hey, a better offer will always be accepted.

RSVP would be nice, but not required.

Maybe a week or so?

Hey Lynette!  How long are you here?  I'm in Oklahoma this weekend and will be
working the following two Saturdays.  But I hope we can get together.  Let me
know!

Greetings all, I just bought a Crusoe Lite and am very excited about
having a bike again. The people I am meeting who have BF's are
wonderful. I'm eager to get my "legs" under me again. Currently in the
bike-honeymoon phase. lol Would love to meet all of you. Will try to
make it to the pedal on Friday, but I'm not sure. Keep riding.

We've got a new Friday member in Austin. His name is Alex Fisher and he
can be reached at alex fisher [afish25@msn.com]. He is just getting
back into riding and wants to get in touch with the other Friday riders
in Austin.

Preston

The political pedal sounds like a Bike Friday kind of thing. Meet at
the City Hall plaza at 4:30 pm on Friday (this week) and we will ride
1.7 miles to beer.

Let's try to get a large group of Friday Folk there and get pictures.

Hi Austin pals,

Lynette form BF here!  Looks like I'll be contributing at the BikeEd
Conference in Austin, June 14-16, thanks to Stanton and Preston
putting me forward. I might bring down one of our new tikits,
http://www.bikefriday.com/tikit

I will be coming straight from a presentation to the NY 5 Boro Bike
Club (following Italy in May), so I'd love to be able to present to
the Austin Club again, this time, perhaps my Route 66 movie, or Italy.
What do you think Nancy, Fred, folks?

Looking forward to meeting you all again.
I'll have to be at a Little People Expo in Seattle beginning of July.
Maybe we can do some riding and WholePayChecking!!!

Hi y'all,
I bought Ruth Kanagy's wheelset without asking enough questions. When
I got the wheels (20mm rim width) on my bike, I discovered my brakes
won't reach. So unless someone can tell me how to extend the reach of
my v-brakes, I've got to either let the wheels go or get different
brakes, which may not be possible with an AG anyway. I've been happy
with the brakes, so I decided to let the wheels go (they really are
pretty!) In case you didn't see or don't remember Ruth's post, here's
her description of the wheels from the Yak list:

*406 WHEEL SET* - Used only 6 months!
    F. Hub - American Classic 24o Micro, Black
    R. Hub - Shimano Capero 36o, Silver
    Rims - Velocity Razor 36o (laced 24)
    Spokes - Butted 184mm
    $150 plus shipping.

She said she was selling them because she traded her bike in for one
w/451 wheels.

I'll sell them for $150 and consider the shipping tuition paid for a
lesson learned. I also have 3 presta tubes that I'll sell for $5 each.
I've put two of them on the wheels, but they've never been ridden
(kind of scary w/o brakes).

If I don't got a response locally, I'll post to the Yak, but I thought
I'd check locally first.

It's a great day for riding!
Nancy

to my BikeFriday Friends

Hugh of the BF Service Dept,  thanks for your email.  My BikeFriday is
running smooth now.

By copy of this email to my BikeFriday Friends here in Austin I am
letting you all know that Bike Mechanic Brent at Bicycle Sport Shop at
South Lamar and Barton Springs overhauled my internal rear hub per the
recommendation letter I got from BikeFriday.

Hugh's email and Brent's savvy got it done.  So now Brent is an expert,
if you need it done here in Austin.
