RE: Beware of the Rengade Cop

This is a growing concern across not only all of California but nearly every state as we are hearing this problem often.

There is a new group in CA called cycling is not a crime. www.cyclingisnotacrime.org They were a co-sponsor of a pro race our company, yikes ID, Inc. sponsored today in San Pedro CA.

I my town, the local police are issuing citations for 2 wide in the bike lane.

yikes ID wants you to ride safe and ride smart. http://www.yikesid.com

the leader in "Attach once, Always there", emergency identification for cyclists, runners, and triathletes so if they're injured, they can be quickly identified, receive proper medical attention and have their family and friends notified.

Hey! I learned to ski at Wilmot:) Although the annual trips out west probably helped too.

I could not agree more. The pool sits in between the San Diego Bay and Pacific Ocean and has awesome views of downtown San Diego. 50m pools are hard to come by, and this one has lap swim hours early in the morning, throughout the day, and in the evenings. I can't believe this one's in my backyard.

Or... you could just put the rebate in the bank and go do some interval work and shave the same amount of time...

Let's face it, except for the elite few out there, all the tech in the world wont make you as fast as sticking to a solid training plan.

Great info Jim. I have another one to add: My sister~~who has spent extended time in places like Ghana and India~~always takes probiotics while she is traveling.

I just did this. My sister's car had a flat and I had to drive it a few miles down the road to get it fixed. The pump worked great! I took the car to Discount Tire who actually repairs leaks for free.

RE: Skip-Stop Elevators?

oh my gosh! I would never take the stairs in your building...and I always take the stairs. I too like the idea of the elevator, although can you imagine how many people it will tick off at first:)
