Folks, Bike E recumbents have been out of production for nearly three years now. New issues for keeping them on the road will no doubt be popping up as they...
When I was 17, I used to bicycle to my job bagging groceries 3 or 4 miles away. For reasons unclear to me now, it took forever to make the trip. Yesterday, at...
Congratulations :-) I'll ignore the ripe old age comment as I'm 2 years older than you! How do your legs feel today? Shyrley ... When I was 17, I used to...
Regarding the first time commuter at 34 - that story makes me feel good - at 49 I've been commuting when weather permits for about a year - 35 mile round trip...
... Hey, I said "semi-ripe" old age. ;) My legs feel great, actually. I'd steadily trained myself to feel quite comfortable with rides up in the range of 10...
My cycling buddy (the one who's cursing his $100 loss and wishing I'd at least extend the courtesy of suffering) won't stop worrying about me road cycling....

While sitting at the light the other day I actually had a driver reach over, roll her window down and tell me she was about to make a right hand turn in front...
... If that had been me, I probably would have responded: "Thanks. I appreciate the thought. In the future, though, it's a lot safer to just stay behind me...
Right On! To get respect you have to show respect. Riding a bike predictably and like a vehicle is the way to go! There will aways be people who will have the...
Female cyclists get to put up with male sexual aggression too. The usual is being whooped at by a car full of lads but I've been groped many times. Summer is...
Sad to hear that but not surprised. I like seeing female cyclists (for more than one reason ;0) (more cyclists out there the better! Plus it reminds females...
... I try to greet every cyclist I run across, whether he's a roadie in full team kit, a commuter like myself, or a Spanish-speaking recent immigrant on ...

... Um... yeah, glad you said that because, just for the record, I only ride a heavy dual suspension mountain bike and bike in street clothes because I can't...
That was very nice of her to do that. When I wait at a light, I keep looking at the turn signal of the car sitting beside me trying to see if they are going...
My sister bought one of these and she remarked on how little noise it makes when going at low speeds - I think less than 30 mph. I wanted to pass this ...
<geek mode> Yeah, maybe it'll just start turning out we need to start listening for the Knight Rider car. It never sounded like a car, but more like a really ...
Hey I am one of those guys you might see racing down the street in lycra, maybe drafting off of a large truck, but attach no generalizations to me because I...
Are those beach cruisers heavy to pedal? S ... Hey I am one of those guys you might see racing down the street in lycra, maybe drafting off of a large truck,...
S'why I got mirrors. And having suffered from deafness in the past I can swivel my head all the way round ;-) Shyrley ... <geek mode> Yeah, maybe it'll just...
Nice bikes. MY main objection to lightweight bikes is the lack of luggage space. I hate being pannier-less in case I come across soemthing to put in them while...
I hope I don't start another long discussion on the virtues of mirrors, but that's another use for mine--detecting silent cars. Handy for spotting other...
I recently read about a hydrogen powered motorcycle under development. They are thinking of giving it some form of sound so people can hear it coming. This...
How about it, ladies? Do male cyclists (especially middle-aged or older men) who greet you come across as perverts? RFM Hello! I'm a new member and a new bike...
