12/1/2012GeneralElissa

Less than speedy recovery

2/1/2012GeneralElissa

The problem with recoveries that aren’t speedy is that everyone forgets that you’re not recovered. Everyone including me. My shoulder and neck still hurts. It’s boring. I can’t ride. I can’t swim.Read More…

Magpie attack! Late breeder syndrome.

Today I hate my e-bike

2/11/2011GeneralElissa

Left the house this morning and started cycling along and the stupid bike kept powering on and off again (which is seriously dangerous when you’re crossing a road). And then it conkedRead More…

Night Riders

Learning new things … like what an allen key screw looks like

Sticky tape may very well work afterall … a day on the bike will tell.

29/9/2011GeneralElissa

It disables the throttle in the process, but that’s a luxury not an essential. A handle that doesn’t slip off is kind of essential to the whole bike riding thing! http://www.allurecosmetics.com.ua retail.ua/

Joy turned to woe in one foul battery

12/9/2011GeneralElissa

Saturday was a glorious day! Insanely windy and I MEAN INSANELY! But gloriously sunny nonetheless. A not-quite-perfect day for a bike ride. I gave Sheldon a good test run. I needed toRead More…
