    Hello! I will try for 150mile just riding on the weekends. I haven't been on for a while and I love it but it got boring with no one to ride with.

    Another ride to/from tonight's ballgame. Wore a player jersey which seemed to do the trick as my team won tonight, still, it didn't breathe as well on my steep climbing ride back home after the game and I arrived home drenched in sweat. Wearing it again tomorrow and if my team keeps winning, I'll keep riding in it all season :)

    I'm going to be out of town for two weeks. What is the best idea for leaving my bike: deflate the tires, leave them be?

    I would just leave them be. Tires actually self deflate a little bit anyway (I pump up my tires every day before I go for a bike ride). The only time I ever deflate my bike tires is for winter storage.

    Thanks. That's what my bike store said too. <3
