Just sayin'.

Down by half.

Hi everyone,

The B SIG ride tomorrow will start at 8:30 instead of 9:00.

Every weather forecast calls for showers 'developing later in the day' tomorrow.  Let's get to the Park at 8:30 for class so that all the groups can be on the road by 9:00.  Please be prompt.

If you have a rain jacket tomorrow is a day where you'll want to bring it.  The same holds true for a fender.  If everyone is well prepared for rain we probably won't have any!

See you in the Park

Not sure if this should be in Marketplace or the main message board so please move if need be.  I'm going to place an order from DeFeet soon and unfortunately they don't seem to have an economy shipping option.  Drop me a line via this site's email form if you're interested in combining orders. 

Here's their website below.  Awesome socks, arm/knee warmers, and all are made in USA with local/sustainable materials.  Their "grab bag" of sock seconds is an awesome deal, and occasionally hilarious.

CHECK IT OUT....ITEM # 37....

Auction to end Monday evening with last bids taken at the Benefit.

My Garmin Edge 500 is consistently off by 5 degrees (higher) when compared to several other instruments. Has anyone else experienced this? Any fix?

Thanks.

I'm shopping for a used bike, a semi-beater, to get around town, something I can lock on the street. This shop seems to have a good selection, but is it honest and reliable?  I'm anxious not to buy a stolen bike. http://pedaluniverse.com/catalog/

Of course, if anyone has such a bike for sale, please do let me know.  I'm 5'11" and hoping to spend less than $300.

Thanks for the advice.

I ride an old mountain bike to work.  It's a short ride , 3 or so miles each way.  Any suggestions on a good saddle?

What's up with Brooks?  They look pretty.  Are they really worth the premium?

I notice my Garmin 800 maximum cadence reading after a ride is in the 200 rpm range - obviously wrong.  I have to manually change it and insert a number just to save my ride data to Garmin connect.  Anyone have a fix?

An old bicycle or automotive inner tube has a lot of life left in it after it no longer holds air.

Hello. I currently have a hybrid and am getting a road bike. Are there any classes or other avenues to learn how to properly ride a road bike, I am very much a rookie but want to learn properly. I understand there are weekend rides with the club but I work on the weekends. I am really looking for basic road bike handling knowledge. Thanks
