    David, I live in a house full of flat feet. 1. See if you can find quality arch supports that are NOT full inserts. They sell such things for ladies shoes that cannot hide a full insert. This might let you keep your cycling shoes and pedals. ( glue them in place ). 2. Sandals will let you use...

    Visibility Flags

    I think we will be run over by inattentive drivers before a$$holes. The odds are not in our favor. Once lived a mile from work, only had a few blocks of no shoulder road. chill ran down my spine when I realized the beaten path I walked next to the road was not made by pedestrians but by...

    has anyone tried bars like this?

    When 10 speeds came out lots of the kids flipped the bars or bought a set that allowed a more uprite stance. Of course this was PRE-brifters and they only dealt the brake lever.

    How to be safe from....?

    OMG yes. In jest we deride the MUP (Massively or Mostly Unaware People ) but its true. I cringe when I walk around the block with my 26 yr old suburban raised son. He barely looks past his feet, never scans, he is prime meat. The time to pause and even reverse course is half a block away, you...

    How to be safe from....?

    oh so very true. A bus or train ride can get you to the land of plenty, and unless you really stick out from the areas norm , who looks twice at a teenager on a 10speed ?

    Sofrider - $950 - DesMoines, IA

    IMHO $800 would be ideal. But It is a supply/demand situation and supposed to be very low mileage and if you are close there is no Shipping.

    Metric vs imperial measurers

    As an American I am also baffled ! But the USA converting to metric we were promised in school ( early 70's ) never happened. The soda industry migrated to two liter extra large containers, but one liter containers are a rarity. I don't remember when our speedometers started having both...
