    What do you listen to when you ride?

    Bringing along an iPod has become a big part of my going for a ride these days. (I ride on bike paths so hearing the traffic isn't that big a deal and I don't turn it up too loud.) Current favorite ride music this last month; Yo La Tengo Pere Ubu Pixies

    My dad bought one of these when I was a kid. We had a blast with it for a few years. A bugger going up hills but a blast going down. :D

    Howdy!

    Another Texan here! I just got my new bike from Mitch at Bicycle Exchange this weekend! Pretty boring compared to the bikes around here but I'm new to this. Haven't been doing any riding after my wife took a bad spill several years ago. Guess it kinda freaked me out! Anyway, I've been a...
