    Gazelle Ultimate C380 HMB

    We have C380s and really like them. It's been 5 years so my memory is now 5 years older. The LBS didn't have a C380, but had a T10, which I recall is the same geometry as a C380 (only really difference I recall is IGH vs derailleur) so judging fit using T10 should be a good test; unless...

    Just for fun...

    Interesting. I checked: 8 National Holidays in UK (11 in US, not all are paid holidays for everyone though; the company I worked for had (as I recall 14) plus I retired with 36 days additional vacation days). The other vary by employer allowed vacation days? Always interested in reading about...

    Goodbye to biking

    Correct, i don't know of a "give me more bpm when I exercise" pacer. I thought I read you had a low resting rate at night. My resting is currently low 50s, during the winter in hangs around low 40s. Upper limit, regardless of exercise is 128 (meds), which is fine for me these days. When I go...

    Goodbye to biking

    Perhaps check, rather than speculate. My Cardiologists and my brother (a cardiologist) told me I have a pacer in my future. My mom got one at 85, pretty sure on Medicare's dime. If your cardiologist shows it is "medically necessary" it should be covered.

    Back to the bike shop

    I played saxaphone in the school jazz band 55 years ago. The hot blonde next to me was better (at saxaphone.) Now I just play the radio.

    So how much was the last dozen eggs you bought?

    Been coming to Maine every year for many moons. Haven't seen $6.99 lobster in forever. I've heard the price off the boat is close to that.

    So how much was the last dozen eggs you bought?

    Podunk town on the Maine coast today. Yesterday dinner (more than eggs, but can't complain about $11.99 per pound.)

    I never agreed with Peta until today.

    I continue to feel blessed for the Healthcare Team and Insurance we have after reading problems some have. Full disclosure: it might help that it shows in our medical records that my brother is a fairly prominent Cardiologist.

    It's not a disadvantage.

    Places that hate bicycle riders.

    Those with a butler have the advantage of not having to experience that.

    Places that hate bicycle riders.

    Many consider tobacco products a bad habit regardless of quantity and don't consider alcohol (without the "excessive" modifier) bad.

    So how much was the last dozen eggs you bought?

    Visited Newfoundland in 1972 with my brothers. Visiting again this October as a cruise port; beautiful area (1972 experience.) Remember sailing in to Port aux Basques with colorful houses as the boats went out for the day and eating KFC in St. John's on (as I recall) Signal Hill in 60 mph winds.
