on yer bike, bottoms up
2011-11-24 09:00:00 While we were driving around the North Island of New Zealand, we wanted to do a winery tour at some point and finally found the perfect place for it: Hastings. Just south of Napier, Hastings is located in the Hawke's Bay region and the wines are superb. We went on a full-day cycling tour of eight wineries through a company called On Yer Bike. They provided us with bikes, water bottles, a packed lunch, a map, and a cell phone. The route took us through olive groves, vineyards and country roads. It was such a nice experience. At the end of the day, we used the cell phone to call the company to let them know which wines we had purchased, and they drove around to the wineries to pick them up. Perfect.

Sgt. Paul Batista gave one reason for his decision to turn the World Naked Bike Ride into the More or Less Naked Bike Ride."Because it's against the law to be totally naked in public," he said.

How I bought my daughter a BOY'S BIKE

I just WON'T stop being pissed off about it because if I get lazy and stop challenging the status quo, it's never going to change.Yes, I am on again about gender polarization in the toy aisle. It is SO messed up that the GIRLS aisle is all about how you look while the BOYS aisle is about doing things and making things. Children are so impressionable and their ideas about themselves are being formed with every step into the children's section of any given store. It's all the same no matter where you go -- toys, clothes, books. Unless of...

Holiday health gifting -That shiny new bike looks great under the tree.
2010-12-04 17:10:00 What child doesn't want a shiny new bike for the holidays? The kid in each of us would enjoy one - My choice this year is the TREK LEXA SLC priced at $1,099.00. It's a perfect combination of aluminum and carbon body styling with Shimano Tiagra 9-speed group with adjustable reach levers. Mountain bikes offer off and on road terrain options. Although, I wouldn't recommend it for the serious tri-athlete, it is a great, heavy-duty, sturdy option that still offers a smooth ride for the "sneaking it in" fitness enthusiast. Be sure to pick up a bike helmet to compliment your ride. Head injuries are the number one injury that can be avoided by wearing a helmet. Try the Bontrager...

Chewbacca, it is!This Wookie character is gentle, hairy, and non-English-speaking. Chewbacca, cutely nicknamed Chewie, became Han Solo's first mate when Solo saved his life from the Imperial Navy's killing order. Since then, Chewbacca owed a life debt to Solo, and vowed to serve him for the rest of his life.In the spirit of Chewbacca's loyalty, combined with green vehicle campaign, I present you Chewbika! This khaki tee shirt is designed by Black T-Shirt and available for sale within Kindred Market's support.What is Kindred Market anyway? It's an online source for creating custom tee shirt brand. Seriously, they're talking about launching a new clothing line every week. Look how many dozen of tees you can buy there! Later on, you might even ask yourself “Will I create the next hot brand to be shown to the world?”

3 Spots to Find Your Perfect (Recycled) Bike
2010-07-09 21:42:00 Watch out, drivers. This summer, it looks like the bicycles are in, and cars are out.Not that I'm complaining. I love that people are embracing the functionality, thrift and ease of getting around on a bike. I use mine almost every day to ride to the gym, run errands and get to Millennium Park or other downtown destinations.Even the state government is taking note: Gov. Pat Quinn signed bike legislation into law Monday to protect cyclists. The bills will penalize motorists who drive recklessly or too close to cyclists as well as create new "Share the Road" license plates, according to the Tribune.With the state working to make biking safer, isn't it time you got some wheels?

CamelBak Wearable Bike Jersey- A Review
2010-05-19 14:26:00 I've never used a CamelBak before. It's not that I have anything against them, it;s just when I started to seriously train, I was introduced to different methods of carrying hydration and stuck with what I knew.My first intro to Camelbak was this year at the Chicago Marathon when they were nice enough to send me a Podium water bottle to keep me hydrated along my journey. According to my wife, I have 10 million water bottles.
