    There's a large intersection a couple of blocks away from us in Greensboro, with 2 right turn lanes, and very clear signage at the signal saying "No Right Turn On Red". About half the cars in these lanes just ignore that sign - many of them don't even bother to stop first. I NEVER trust...

    Sport model by Espin discontinued

    ESPIN makes a really nice bike for their price point, with things like hydraulic disc brakes and front suspension fork, lights, USB port, and good quality materials. I love my Flow, and, 2 years after purchase (admittedly ridden only the half of the year we're in the Triad) it's still a fun...

    Last week's ride on the High Point Greenway: Been meaning to try that one for a couple of years now, but it involved bikes in the trunk of the car (don't ask!), So we kept putting it off. Sure wish they'd finish the missing link on the Bicentennial Greenway - then we'll be able to ride the...

    My first ride on my newly bilaterally steroid injected knees! Used lots of throttle on the steeper bits to keep some breathing/pulse issues under control, but so happy to be riding my Flow on this lovely Piedmont Triad day 😁😁😁!

    After reading Stefan's post about people disappearing, and having my heart broken reading about the loss of several of our wonderful members, just want to say I'm still here. Health issues have kept me off my bike, but working on getting them resolved so I can get back out there! I've been...

    Well I have to admit I never thought about that in the entire 48 years I've lived just south of there in Washington State, but now, I know! https://604now.com/naming-british-columbia-history/

    I’m Moving To Silverdale, WA and am looking for fun stuff

    Come on up to Whidbey sometime - meet at the Coupeville ferry, ride around through Fort Casey and the countryside, grab a bite to eat at Callahan's, then back on the ferry to return to Port Townsend. It'll have to be summer, though... We're on the east coast til June-ish 😁.

    Trying to get a streak going 🤣. Took my neighbor, who bought the same bike as mine (newer model) back in November for HER first real ride. She fell when she first got the bike, then we left for the west coast and she never got back on it. Today did not go well for her 🙁. She was very tentative...

    We just recently returned - had been back in WA since mid-December...I think I rode my La Free ONCE, before all sorts of things went to hell in a handbasket since the beginning of the year 😕.

    FINALLY good enough weather (in NC), FINALLY recovered enough from knee sprain, FINALLY recovered enough from COVID-19, FINALLY back out on my Flow! It's been WAY too long since my last ride, but, 🤞🤞🤞 I'm back!

    Biking days are over.

    So very sad to hear this - my heart hurts for you. As others have said, wishing you and your family peace, and hoping this treatment option is successful.

    Resist all negative thinking…

    And, isn't this just a fine example of what the OP was talking about 😉.
