    What is your favorite and/or most memorable bike-related scar?

    bet you can't guess what that is from! It's still a pretty easy to see scar and I get comments all the time in the summer. love it.

    thule vs yakima vs...

    I have a 2002 Ford Focus 5 dr hatchback. I'd like to get roof racks to transport my mtn bikes but have never owned or used roof racks before. I have a Saris Bones trunk rack that holds three bikes, but I hate the pain of having to take it off to get into the back of the car. I have two hard...

    Cold ride in today. But there was actually a break in the clouds and I put sunglasses on. Got to work by 9 after my hour commute, but I have no appointments until 3, so I'm twiddling my thumbs for most of the day. I should work on a revision of my research paper since I'm spending next week...

    cyclocross questions...

    Yeah I know about tire clearance issues. So I should borrow/buy a different bike that can run wider tires to try cyclocross?

    cyclocross questions...

    I want to try cyclocross. I have road bike and XC mtn bike experience, but I've never cyclocrossed before. Can I adapt my road bike so I can try cyclsocross on it, or do I need a different bike for it? My road is a '04 trek 1500. I'm interested in selling it for a cyclocross bike or a single...

    Attention parents!!!

    Thankfully I don't have kids yet, but I'm in social work and currently do outpatient therapy for children and teens. Of course that means I do adult and family therapy too. The biggest thing I see is no back bone and no follow through. I get a lot of parents who feel guilty (like about a...

    ***Monday GMT***

    Afternoon all. So the ice storm that hit NY on Friday should have been enough to make me turn around and head back home. The thruway was alright from Rochester to Syracuse, but east of Syracuse things got much, much worse. I'm halfway between Syracuse and Albany when a guy moves into my...

    I tried XC skiing over the weekend and came out relatively unscathed. It was actually pretty fun, but at times I definitely think we were doing more work skiing than we would have been walking. Hope you have fun! Today is such another wasted day at my internship. If Thursday wasn't my last...

    Ughl. 3" of snow in under 3 hours, and a coworker just asked me to stay for a meeting at 1 so I can do a powerpoint for him. I swear, they use interns purely for their technical knowledge. We actually had a clinic-wide meeting on how to CUT AND PASTE from word into our database! And there were...

    So get this...(A serious thread for a change)

    That sounds sticky. Most important is to go with your gut, because you can always get a new sitter. Have you let her take the kids anywhere before, or do they stay at your house? Also, I'd be curious as to why they went to her house. I mean if they were closer to her house and they needed a...

    ***Thursday GMT***

    I'm a social work intern (aka I do therapy with kids) and I drive an hour to work this morning to make four phonecalls. I have nothing else to do. My supervisor is out sick, and I have no clients today. There's no one I can shadow, and I'm caught up on paperwork. I am debating on whether or not...
