Congratulations Ian and welcome home. After the news from this summer's Cascade and GRR we certainly need a ride report that won't scare off the newcomers :^)...
Mark, I was surprised to hear you say that you have the original rear brake blocks on your tandem but then I remembered you live in Florida. Here in hilly...
"I have a couple of young friends who are planning to travel to Japan this fall. They will be touring along the Atlantic coast of the Home Island. " I think...
<<The only other thing I noticed while riding in Japan was that they set up their brake levers the opposite from the west (Right=Rear, Left=Front) which can...
I'm not a "front brake only all the time" avocate, just that I use first and almost exclusively. Also guilty of correcting the setup of my bikes to place the...
All, I have seen "AC200" painted on the roads around DeKalb. Do they mark a 200k or something else? I am thinking about following the markings and kinda want...
Charlie, surprised to hear of a front rim/wheel failure like that. Seems common legend would suggest the tire would explode from the excess heat long before...
The front brake lever on the left is the "correct" side for us lefties. Unless of course you also want to cyclocross. Then it needs to be on the right for...

Time to start organizing my BMB stuff, including registration packet. This is my 5th registrating for BMB and this year I'm rider # 3 which just goes to show...
I didn't see any warning at the Saxton river area. This morning I recalled from 2002 the bad section between New Salem and Newton. Remember it more on the...
Here are just a few photos taken during last month's 1200K Gold Rush Randonee in California: http://www.flickr.com/photos/rubic/sets/690364/ I'm looking...
There has been some discussion about doing another "rando hike." Charlie and I did one of these back in March up in the Joyce Kilmer-Slickrock Wilderness...

I would love to do it. I used to hike the pine Mt trail(23 miles in about 8 hrs). But this one sounds like fun. Let me know. Don Mayne...
I just returned from a trip to Las Vegas and used DHL to ship my bike. I used the local Office Max which has a contract with DHL. The cost of shipping to Vegas...
Since the GRR, my training has been less than ideal for BMB. Things are getting a little better now, but I've had alot of trouble with motivation. I've put...

In a message dated 8/3/05 11:12:56 PM Eastern Daylight Time, ... Wanting to do something a little bit different this year I've decided to opt for "BMB Lite"....
2-3 years ago I surfed around until I found a French audax website. I was trying to learn something about audax style of cycling. As I recall it did have a...
Kevin I'm trying to talk a couple of my friends into coming up and doing it. Think you can con Chris into yet? I emailed him yesterday about us riding together...
Yeah, that's a good idea. Last time I used a very small pack but took more clothes (it was March) and sleeping bag. This time, I'm thinking of taking my...

Hi Kevin, A few of us are riding 6 gaps + Brasstown on Saturday. We are meeting at the General Store right before Turners Corner at 8am. You and anyone in...
Kevin: I agree with Mike and think you'll feel great. Light training should let the effort of GRR settle in. I don't have my bike out here, but I do have my ...
