As the father of three small kids (ages 7 and 5 and 5), I work them into my
riding whenever I can. I try to get out once a week for a few hours by
myself, either on the road or on the mtb, and maybe a quick 10 mile evening
spin once or twice a week through our local metro park. Aside from that
Forget the brevets and the long solitary hours in the countryside. Ride

Michael, you and Deacon explained the approach I have taken and have enjoyed.
In addition, I am fortunate that my wife is able to handle our children's
school drop-off and pick-up several days a week. This allows me to cycle to
work 1-3 times a week.

I promise not to cross post with a local forum often, I've started a running

I started riding because I had no time for recreation. In '71 I was
working full time at night in an office and going to school during the day.
The sedentary life got to me and I started riding my bike just to work a
little recreation into my day. Never stopped. These days, I use my car

It strikes me that seldom have I ever felt like I was riding enough. Which

I'm guessing your really talking about finding the time to do the prep
rides so you aren't seriously undermiled during the event.
The best advice I ever got was that no ride is too short.

Hello everyone,
I'm looking to sell a green double top tube Sam that I bought new from
Rivendell back in 2011. I'm going to preface this by saying that I love the
bike and by no means wish to part with it, but I plan on moving to Japan
this year to work and a folding bike like a Brompton or

One, a 1996 Trek 930 that I bought new in the box in 2008 for $149. It is a
wonderful, mediocre, rigid fork, musa steel bike. Woulda bought ten of them had
they been available. Only weird thing is the 1 1/8 threaded headset.

I pumped the Hetres up to 50psi and went on a ride today. Overall, there
was less of a feeling/sound of a rub. However, occasionally under heavy
load the feeling persisted. Wondering if maybe its a bottom bracket issue
(or maybe even a seat issue?).
For reference I just measured my Hetres and
I was wondering the same thing. I have no insider info, but my guess is

be wrong though.
