We are still getting a bit of precipitation in my neighborhood, and the roads are pretty wet. No go today.

From the current issue of Adventure Cycling magazine:

If it is actually raining at 5:00 AM the ride will be officially cancelled. Let's hope that the forecast for "few showers" means showers somewhere else.

There is a product on the market called "Road ID", heavily advertised in BICYCLING  magazine and probably other places, too. In one version, it is just a bracelet which gives your name, address,  and contact information of next-of-kin, friend, etc.. But the one that they push is tied in electronically to a site which contains your medical history, accessible by internet or phone (don't ask me how this works) to further data (e.g., medical history, allergies. meds, etc.) via a password and username on the back of the Road ID.

Hi All,

I wanted to gauge people's thoughts about the elimination of the couples' membership option. In my family, I am the cyclist and my fiancee is the runner. To a certain extent, I run because of her and she bikes because of me. I've signed her up for a membership the last few years because it was only marginally more expensive to do so. I feel that I get excellent value for my membership fee and am happy to pay $30 for it. However, I'm unlikely to sign up my fiancee for a $30 membership and she almost surely won't pay for it herself.  Obviously other couple dynamics are different and I'm curious:

Teen drove onto the shoulder and struck and killed cyclist John Przychodze. According to Kirkland Police Detective Allan O’Neill unless a person’s driving recklessly, they’re intoxicated, (on) drugs or alcohol, then there’s really no criminal charges to be made. More info here.

If someone leaves a loaded gun accessible to a toddler and the toddler kills someone, the gun owner is responsible for the accident. When will the United States charge drivers according to the deadly weapon they have in their hands?  

Selling my Garmin 310xt (used and in GREAT condition). Includes USB ANT Stick™, AC charger and clip, manuals, NEW Garmin GSC 10 Speed/Cadence Bike Sensor ($40) and Quick Release Kit ($20) -- all for only $320. 


Finally, a GPS-enabled training device that isn't afraid of the water. The rugged Forerunner 310XT is the triathlete's indispensable training tool -- a GPS-enabled trainer that is water-resistant to 164 ft (50 m), tracks data in multiple sport modes and sends it wirelessly to your computer. This multisport device has up to 20 hours of battery life, tracks distance, pace and heart rate¹ on land, and goes from wrist to bike in seconds.
