Megan Hauser replied to Mollie's discussion 'Key not turning in Kryptonite U-Lock'"Thinking about this again and reading your followup, I realize I had this same problem with my Kryptonite. I took the metal piece off (I think it was a hex screw, but it may have been a Torx?). I never use the frame mount for the lock, anyway. Now…"

If I recall correctly, Julie said they might be available for purchase this spring, but don't quote me on that. They are definitely a fall/winter/early…"
Megan Hauser replied to Dave Grossman's discussion 'North Branch Trail Not Melted!'"We rode from the trailhead at Milwaukee/Devon to Happ Road (mile 10) and back today. The trail was clear and there were lots of folks out and about. Fortunately there were no wildlife encounters, aside from seeing a few mating duck pairs in some the…"
Megan Hauser replied to Dave Grossman's discussion 'North Branch Trail Not Melted!'"Duppie, thanks for the update. I've had some close calls with deer out there, particularly in the evening hours, although I don't think I've ever seen so many during one ride. Maybe it's time to get one of those "deer…"
Megan Hauser replied to Dave Grossman's discussion 'North Branch Trail Not Melted!'"Anne, sounds like you're talking about the North Shore Channel trail, although thanks for the update; I was curious about that one too, since its a lot closer to my house. Any reports on the North Branch (the one that goes up to the Botanic…"
Megan Hauser replied to Dave Grossman's discussion 'North Branch Trail Not Melted!'"Bump. Anyone know how the North Branch is doing now? I'd love to get out there and enjoy the predicted nice weather this weekend."
Megan Hauser replied to h' 1.0's discussion 'Winter 2013- who's still riding?'"I'm coming off ACL surgery and won't be able to ride again until January at the earliest. You can bet your sweet bippy I'm going to be out there as soon as I can, and when I am, I'm going to announce it here."
Megan Hauser replied to John Farris's discussion 'Bike Messengering - Good Job?'"This was a slightly different gig from messengering, but I worked as a Potbelly deliverer in the Loop for about 9 months in 2010-2011. My experience was that speed was based on knowledge of shortcuts and traffic idiosyncrasies, along with a healthy…"

The 20 seconds it takes for me to walk to the office kitchen and back is agonizingly long. I could be spending that valuable time watching more cat videos on YouTube.

Perimeter Ride 2012 Planning Group
The Perimeter Ride has been going for a solid decade and is an important first century for a lot of people who might not try such a thing without the CTA bail-out option. Also, it's awesome! Nature trails, oddball sights along the way, interesting food options and an easy pace for the moderately hardcore.The venerable John Greenfield has been running it all these years, but he wants to step away and focus on developing new rides which will surely be fantastic. Stay tuned for those, he's got…See More
