FYI

Just found Version 2.7 available this week. Fixes some important issues.

Hi all-  I'm posting the three installments I've written so far about our new life in the San Juan mountains of colorado.  Hope you enjoy the read.   I'll attach a link to some pics with the next installment.

LIFE ON THE RANGE, part 1

I rarely ever use a cue so not sure if I need GPS Mapping. What are the practical aplications of the 810/800 that you use that the 510/500 does not offer?

I've always thought the Darwin Awards are apocraphyl. You never know who "awards" them. But I was sent a list today of this  year's supposed winners--further casting doubt on their legitimacy since there is more than a quarter of the year left to be really stupid. Anyhow, here is--or was--the fifth place winner:

"Santiago Alvarado, 24, was killed as he fell through the ceiling of a bicycle shop he was burglarizing. Death was caused when the long flashlight he had placed in his mouth to keep his hands free rammed into the base of his skull as he hit the floor."

Where the Bike Lane Ends - An intro to NYC riding

Wednesday, Sept 25, 2013, 7 to 9 PM

Hosted by RIDE BROOKLYN, Williamsburg

Hey all, I'm going to do a little beginner mountain biking this fall. I'm nervous about wrecking.

Does anyone have reccomendations for some basic, not super expensive protective gear? I will be wearing a long sleeve jersey and tights or knickers, and using my normal road helmet and normal road half-finger gloves. What else should I get to be confortable, mobile, and have the best protective bang for my buck?

Knee/elbow pads? (Foam or plastic?) Hip-padded shorts?

Thanks!

Horner now just 3 seconds off. Fun race to follow.

At the forthcoming Interbike, Greg Lemond will have a new series of his bikes in conjuntion with the French frame company, Time.

For starters, there will be 3 limited editions of several carbon fiber road bikes celebrating his Tour de France wins in 1986, the thrilling 1989 and 1990. He'll also have some bikes with Campagnolo 80th Anniversary Record components.
