Joe is correct! Baby Bear’s bike needed attention. Picture this: you are biking downhill, sailing onto campus in lovely spring weather. Masses of parents and children, half-awake and somber are making their way to the school grounds. On the last leg of the ride, you apply your brakes and EE

Y'all make good points about the flat, she shouldn't be waiting 'til Thursday for that. But she mentioned a full list given to the mechanic, I suspect the HotRock is getting more work done. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

Bike Friday makes a non-folding, adjustable size bike that is mostly sold in fleets to schools. However, individuals can buy just one bike if they desire. (Disclaimer, I work as a service mechanic at Bike Friday.) The bike is a great choice for a family with growing kids or to have as a loaner

Oh Ryan, you think of me with a lot of generosity. I was a great disappointment to my high school English teacher when I forsook her hopes of my journalism career in favor of a nursing career. I think I love and am energized by people even more than I am by a good book, so I got a bachelor’s in

Beer likely would at least get the flat tire addressed quickly. The other very easy solution is to buy a Brompton (or Tern or probably any other folding bike) that will take little room in the garage and magically seems to adjust to fit any size rider quite nicely. Then you are always prepared

We were all set to ride to the boys’ volleyball game at school today - my whole family. Inexplicably, the front derailer on the Betz would not work. At all. And it was not that little wingnut, which is the only thing I know to fix. Also, the Cygolite is missing a piece! I’m the only one with acc
