Likewise, Greg! You will probably be hearing soon about plans for the bike picnic.

Jed,
It was great meeting you, Liam and Jesse and joining your ride. Eddie and Nick enjoyed the hot dogs and playing with your boys. Thanks again for the hospitality and we look forward to the next picnic.
Greg

Oh ho, the Chocolate ride — boy, I get pestered enough by my kids for candy, I just couldn’t bring them along on a chocolate ride, it would be too much. That would be a fun date ride.

My bike picnics are generally a way to get my kids friends out of the house on the weekends. I typically don’t invite anyone on breakfast rides because we try and be out the door before 8am, and in the past they’ve counted more as family time.

Jennifer, we didn’t cross paths at Linuxfest 2011, did we? Only Andrei met me for that GPS ride.

Oh, even on my lunchtime rides, I keep a running joke that everyone needs to poke me in the ribs if I don’t bring coffee. Esp on the winter rides.

A breakfast picnic ride? Will there be coffee? I’m interested, but not too far since the 18th is the Chuckanut Century. Fairhaven’s a good destination. There’s a chocolate ride that afternoon in town: http://everybodybike.com/eventDetail.aspx?id=131

Something like the bike-in or the coffee hunt near you? I’m sure if you tell your fav businesses about the idea, they’d likely agree.

Thanks for the review. Very informative. Been looking for a good grocery getting replacement to the car.

Comment on In Another Life: Solar Power by spinthyme

I do wish that everyone will jump on the solar power bandwagon. This is something we all can do for ourselves at home… right now! Even if you rent you can remove some of the electrical burden for your home.

Do-It-Yourself solar panels are simple to make and cost as little as under $200 per panel. There is no need to wait for the bureaucrats to figure out how they intend to set up and deliver solar power to our homes.

Let’s not wait. Let’s get started now and cut down and maybe even eliminate the power companies from our lives and return to truly green living.
