Hi folks:

I'm the new guy. I ride a Strada bent at most any pace and would like to join you all soon.

My interests include all events, health and safety, good company, adventure, and promotion of bike awareness
by all government agencies.

I ride as a full time commuter and am totally aware of the perils of our streets.

Please check out the New Times article (miaminewtimes.com/news/cyclists-court-death-daily/). Also, please
read the comments. All are very reveling, including numbers 19, 41, 48 & 49.

I would love to hook up with with anyone for local rides, especially Steve/ CA.

Best regards,
Bill

I would like to thank Allen Mandel from South Broward Wheelers for this weekend. I was the winner of the Bike Raffle and it is a beautiful
Jamis Boss beach cruiser. I would also like to Mario from DownTown
Bicycles for helping me exchange the bike for a size that fit me.

Here's a great article from the guys at Road Bike Rider.com:

Prevent punctures before riding!

No one wants a flat tire. But sure as inner tubes contain air, they lose it sooner or later. You can help make it later by doing two things before leaving your driveway.

First, pump tires to proper pressure.

Uncle Al has ranted about this several times. He's concerned about comfort, bike handling and tire life, but proper pressure also prevents flats -- pinch flats (known as "snakebites").

These flats happen when you bang into something hard, such as a rock, lip of a pothole or railroad track. The sharp impact mashes the tire against the rim. The tube gets pinched, causing two small side-by-side holes that look like fang marks.

Prevent this type of flat by airing 700x23C tires to 90 psi front and 95 psi rear, slightly more if your tires are narrower or you're heavy.

Second, inspect the tread before every ride.

Most punctures don't happen instantaneously. Instead, something sharp sticks to the tread and works through to the tube during numerous wheel revolutions.

Find those bad boys before they do you in. Before riding, spin each wheel and hold your gloved palm against the tire. Watch for anything in the tread -- glass, gravel, a thorn tip, wire from a shredded truck tire. Pop it out with your fingernail or the corner of a small screwdriver blade.

Tip! Keep a pair of tweezers in your repair kit. They make it easy to pluck out the most stubborn sharp object. Always feel inside the tire to be certain it's completely removed.

Likewise, it's smart to spin the wheels and brush the tires after a rest stop -- especially if you rolled your bike across an unpaved area.

When servicing your bike in a repair stand, get close and use a flashlight to inspect each tire all the way around. You'll find shards in the tread and anything else that's a potential problem.
