We're planning a self-guided tour of the Loire Valley in July and looking for a good (& reasonable) tour company for our accomodations, bike rentals, route maps, etc. Anyone have experience with "Detours of France" or have a recommendation?

Queens sorely needs more bike lanes and trails. Here's a petition urging the completion of one:

I'm using Lake boots, but noticed this solution has its limits in the mid 20's. I hear the Wolfhammer can take it own to zero Farenheit. Any users?  Had to add Toe Warmers on Saturday.

We're planning a bike trip from Angers to Blois next summer. Interested in limited use of a touring company (bike rental, self-guided itinerary, hotel reservations, luggage transport) and considering "Detours in France" for this. Anyone had experience with this company or have suggestions of others?

OK, OK: that's a terrible tease of a headline for this. Blame it on my shabby advertising background.

But, being partially left handed, I'll start with a postscript: It's not generally known the designation of Lifetime Member extended me had a condition attached to it: it is predicated on my cutting back the number of posts I put up on the MB. If I fail to reduce them, the designation may be rescinded. (Start counting: but, as in all things, don't look for my compliance.)

"The GWB Sidewalk is closed due to adverse weather."

The weather gods don't seem to be cooperating so Sunday's pancake ride is cancelled.

We will try to re-schedule within the next few weeks. Hope to see you then.

Does anyone knop how to scroll back on the Club's Facebook Timeline to previous years -- you know, so that I can see the glorious photos of 2012 etc when I took the SIG and was in good shape?
