This is great.  Thanks for putting it together! 
 I have couple of suggestions, more for the participant pi-droppers than 
for John:

1)  Please be cautious and think twice about listing your actual home 
address.  Especially if you live somewhere like Denver or Oakland, where 
bike theft is a major industry.  Thieves could use this info to stake-out 
and target your place.

2)  it would be great to list the model(s) and size(s) of bikes you own.  
So many times I wish I could have test-ridden something, but didn't know 
how to find an example nearby.  This could really help.

Well, to play devil's advocate a bit, your address is public information 
pretty easily discovered on the web, and listing details of your bikes 
might make it more attractive to a bike thief knowing what they will find.

That said, I plugged in approximate coordinates for mine, and I listed my 
bikes, though not the sizes. That's a good suggestion. I don't think 
potential thieves care much about the size - it's not like they're looking 
for bikes to ride themselves!
