Saw this in the most recent Centerlines newsletter, http://www.bikewalk.org/cl/2009/feb/0204b.html It paints the picture of what most of us already were aware...
Hello, I am looking to replace the seat on my road bike. I would like to find a decent seat that does not cost me an arm and a leg. So far I've been to REI...

I cannot believe how little room they left. I would be riding that yellow line to ensure that I stayed out of the canal. Is it as narrow as it looks?...

When I drive home from work in my car, I can either take Roseville Parkway or Hwy 65/Eureka. I spend much more time waiting at lights on RP. Lots of idling,...
