Any iPhone users who ride brevets? I'm interested in knowing what
GPS / mapping app/site you use. Also what kind of mount for the
device.

I find that inserting plastic bags into the toes of any shoe work
really well once it gets below 30. Bags in mittens work as well.

Spanninga's latest model does this - I had my eyes on the Bridgestone
(found it in a flickr group somewhere) but no longer needed it since
the Spanninga had a light sensitivity feature added.

I've put my Saluki through two Cleveland hellish winters (salt, snow,
grime, and all) and it's made it just fine. Just take care of it after
salty rides (wash down and a dry, then lube the chain) and it will be
fine. The reaso

Will the print version of the latest Reader be available online? In a

period where it was available for $5... which I missed.

I've spent a number of winters with steel frames encased in salt. I do
clean them regularly, but all the same, rust does form. Isn't it a
protective seal against further corrosion, though? I've convinced
myself that it's all largely cosmetic and that any steel frame can
withstand salt thrown at it
I just purchased Ribbit cantilever brakes (front and rear) for my
Saluki to replace Shimano r550 cantis and probably should have asked
around to hear what folks thought of them.
Anyone with experience using these?
Thanks in advance.

I wanted to take off the rear rack and move to my summer set up but
resisted the urge... maybe next week. I've been riding with Strala
Vinters for a while now - warm in cold temps and on snowy and rainy
days they keep the moisture out. Looking forward to when they'll be
uncomfortably hot.

Discovered these while cleaning the Saluki's rims today:

Hi all-
I'm getting two new wheels built up on VO Diagonale 650b rims. I
figured
I might as well try something new and see if I can get more miles out
of them than I did with the Velocitys.
Thanks for the advice!

I've come to the conclusion that the only time I'm ever yelled at,
buzzed, bothered, etc. on a commute is when I'm on a bicycle with
upright handlebars. When I'm on a bike with drop bars, whether I'm in
the drops or not, I never have a problem.

I ride my Saluki every day in Cleveland, land of salt. Two winters
have destroyed a bottom bracket, two rims and have weathered the thing
considerably. I replaced the parts but wouldn't ride another bicycle.
Ride your best on the worst rides. And use lots of Boeshield.

I find that cleaning the rims is the only option. I have to do this
every few days. I clean them with a citrus solution (recommended by
Sheldon Brown). I'm running Shimano 550 cantilevers.
