Also, you should practice changing a tire in the dark sometime before the

Thanks for posting this. I just bought a bullmoose for my Bridgestone
MB and I really like 'em, but a little higher would be better. These
pics show me it would really work and not look too Frankenstein-like.

I know it's a bit early for cabin fever, but I am dreaming of riding
in the desert next summer.
A friend and I have kicked around several ideas for a 2-4 day trip but
have never gone past the talk. I want to change that summer of 2011.

What Steve said.
If you're going to be riding in country dark I would say it's almost
impossible to have too much lighting.
However if you can ride 124 miles in less than 8 hours I wouldn't worry
about lights.
Find someone that rides at your speed and stay with them.

Hi all.
I signed up for my first brevet, a 200K along the Pacific on New
Year's Day. I know there are some randonneurs here-- any advice for a
newbie? I've done bike touring and centuries before, but never a
randonee. Given the time of year, I'm expecting quite a bit of time
riding in the dark. As

Actually the mechanical failure turned out to be a mini-blessing. I did have
to get the spoke replaced but that meant I gave my bike a good cleaning
while I was getting the wheel cleaned up. In addition I put on a new rear
tire as the old one was nearing the end of its life. I couldn't quite see

If you use military time, 22:22 is an actual time on the clock. But it's less

I have always been sartorially rebellious.
I would switch to the knobbies if we ever get any weather. This
