Silicon Valley Bicycle Coalition

Sports Basement (Sunnyvale) is hosting a party for SVBC Tuesday night (that's tonight by the time most of you read this). Basically, anyone that mentions "SVBC" at the store on January 6th between 6 and 8 PM will get 10% off their entire purchase, and Sports Basement will contribute another 10% to SVBC.

They'll also be providing snacks and the like in the back room. Should be fun, stop in if you can, and spread the word. Hope to see some of you out there.

Related to the recent downtime of the website, the South Bay Cycling e-mail discussion list is currently unavailable.

It is being worked on, and I will puts updates here.

Not really, but if you are reading this it means the website is back, and hopefully still running.

I got in the first bike accident since I was... a teenager? It turns out that one should not fold their bike while they are still riding it. Go figure!

You can read all about it on my other blog, as well as get grossed out from photos of my skinned up knee!

I learned a valuable lesson tonight: single speed bikes don't go that fast! ^_^

Gary Brustin spoke last Thursday about Bicycling and the Law, and I have to say it was a really great talk. I personally learned a lot, and I took some notes to share with folks who couldn’t make it (make sure to come next time!).

I turned off the unregistered commenting. There seems to be a flurry of spam activity coming out of Russia, and our comment queue was filling up and making it difficult to find legit comments. So, for the moment it will be off.

If I hear that some folks really, really want to comment without registering an account on the site, then I will consider setting up something like reCAPTCHA.
