Happy 4th of July!

Just wanted to wish everyone a big and happy 4th of July! Rode to work on my single speed today, fun but not as exciting as the fixie! Oh well, need to stay safe! That means gravel roads! Hey I can handle that!
Only a 11.5 mile ride to work, then 12hrs of ups and downs! Trauma Surgery Weekend Shift! Oh Yeah!

Open invites go out to all riders, looking for friends to chat with and hang out!
Stay safe everyone on this 2009 4th of July!

Later-FGJ

Don't give up on your front brake quite yet. pedal cages without toe straps help you feel more secure and remind you to keep pedaling, but also allow for quick foot removal while you get a feel for starting and stopping. do you have any friends th...
