    I wonder if the one 5 vote was for the pictures... or for saving people from my flute music?? :laugh:

      I have a hybrid (Schwinn Badlands). I recently bought thinner road tires for it, which helped a lot, but the components are crap so I get into trouble shifting on some steeper hills. I'm looking at buying a Trek 1200, or comparable, after my first 1000 miles which should be around Christmas.

      :( I tried to mountain bike in S. Florida and I just couldn't do it, too much pain, so no more biking for me. So I gave away my beloved schwinn mesa le. (I put the police tires on it and it did wonders in the city when I lived in Savannah)

        Why go through the hassle of bottles? Just put the keg above head level, and use a tube... ;)

        The mental picture there brings back college memories. My school had a spring festival day called 'May Daze', emphasis on the 'daze'. I remember seeing a bunch of guys with a funnel and a piece of tubing, using it to drink entire pitchers of beer at one time :omg:.

          Indeed. I quit smoking on January 1, 1991. I started running and bicycling the next year. The first couple of years I had one overuse injury after another. Shin splints, Achilles tendonitis, stress fractures, and bruised meniscus in my knees. I was complaining to my doctor, and he explained it to me. He told me I had an addictive personality, and had substituted a positive addiction for a negative one. He said his goal was to help my body survive the 'breaking-in' period of my new addition so that I could continue feeding it :). Fifteen years later, it's still working. I've run over 10,000 miles in that time, and ridden probably 5,000 miles. I would like to ride more than I do, but I'm a sissy about riding in poor weather.

          I tried getting into kickboxing, weightlifting and running in the past year and I grew tired of all of them. So far, cycling seems to be the most promising for me. I can ride socially as well as solo. It's also the only activity I enjoyed enough to quit smoking for. It's been 12 days. :)

            Bummer. I think with a properly fitting bike you may find the pain will go away. I could be wrong though.

            That's one town I've always wanted to visit. Some friends went down to Tybee Is. recently and took some photos of Savannah as well. Looks like a beautiful town.

                I'm sure it's coming along nicely. I really liked your new white wolf flute. Very cool. I can hardly be judgmental of anyone learning an instrument, just ask my neighbors how my guitar playing is. :rolleyes:

                  The cops are everywhere and they check tags before they check speed. (Knee pain is unrelated to the bike, btw)
