I might be the least jealous here though Marc. I was just up in that area two weeks ago for a group hiking trip. Hope you have a great time and the rainy ...
Student Lisa:<br><br>Do you have a contact at Graber? have you contacted them at all yet? I'd recommend to talk to their warranty dept, and if you arent ...
>Do you have a contact at Graber? have you >contacted them at all yet? <br><br>No and no. I'm still collecting my documentation. The people at my bike...
New to club, but long term bike commuter. I only have a 2-mile commute, but don't commute too much from June to mid-Sept. because it is too hot (heat indices ...

Hey Glennboulder,<br><br>Is that a little stainless-steel coffee bottle in your bottle cage?!<br><br>If so, pretty kewl! Where can I get one?<br><br>CY...
Hehe, I could put coffee in it if I wanted, but it's designed for water. It's manufactured by "Aladin", and it's a stainless steel bottle with a double wall...
Here in Gainesville FL all the public busses have a two bike rack on the front, very nice. I am fortunate to have a couple of routes go near my home and work,...
On that note (i.e., rain), would you have any recommendations for cycle-specific foul-weather gear? I know this fair summer weather won't last forever....

I ordered my tire liners from Nashbar today. Those tubes are costing me a fortune! <br><br>Another question: where's the cheapest place to buy CO2 cartiges or...
I'm confused. Tire liners aren't tubes - at least mine weren't. And, yes, they are pricey. I think mine were ten bucks. But why do you want co2? Is this ...
