That sounds like a challenge. I have a MacKay kilt and a Utilikilt I never wear. Maybe cycling would give them a new life. No chance I’m buying a whole third kilt to ride bikes with though. I bet there’s a caber carrier I could get, too. Some sort of trailer apparatus. Philip Sonoma County,

One of the most important details here is that the kilt colors match the Platypus! Way to pick the tartan; it's so stylish. Thanks for the link...I might have to get one! I played field hockey in the days when we wore kilts for games...I don't know how that tradition started, but they are

That rug really ties the room together. I have a decent amount of Scottish ancestry plus it gets hot here so I think I could swing a kilt. My wife got used to my knickers so a kilt is the next logical step. Robert Tilley San Diego, CA Sent from my iPhone > On Jun 24, 2022, at 9:10 AM,

Hi Annie, I just read your blog post about selling the Clem. You mentioned problems getting it into an Amtrak rack... is the bike just too long to fit on Amtrak, even if weight were not a problem? I am looking at a Clem but have worried about exactly that issue. -Wes On Friday, June 24, 2022

I doubt you could cycle in one of those, the Sport Kilt is a bit of a different wee beastie being lightweight. On Friday, June 24, 2022 at 11:20:50 AM UTC-5 Jay Lonner wrote: > Never worn one, but I’m happy to give a shoutout to > https://utilikilts.com/. Big pockets, practical fabrics. > >

I use the "e-bike" Kool Stops on my Motolites which work fabulously, but they're thick and make pulling the front wheel on my roadish fork (Riv custom) a pain. I may try the short gray cheapies on the front, I'm tired of wrestling with these. On Friday, June 24, 2022 at 5:07:10 AM UTC-7 Paul

Matches the Mermaid methinks? The kilt actually has a hidden pocket in the front flap & you can order with side pockets too. On Friday, June 24, 2022 at 11:10:17 AM UTC-5 Patrick Moore wrote: > Forgot to add that the plaid matches the tribal rug. > > On Fri, Jun 24, 2022 at 10:08 AM Patrick

Something similar just happened here, too. In my case, I'm the buyer; the frame was damaged enough - deep gouge in the top tube that resulted from something hard smacking and dragging / digging into it - that even if I just paint over it with nail polish, you'll see the huge dent. I don't

I have found that the thin line salmons, when working, are great pads but by far the fussiest to setup. Getting them to be quiet can require such ludicrous amounts of toe-in that the pad wont last more than 1000 miles. One trick that has worked previously worked is cleaning the pads themselves
