I live in SHampoo-Banana and ride my bicycle a lot. When I got an Xtracycle a few years ago (that’s me, trendsetter extraordinaire) I made the shift from saying “that’s the weather; should I drive or ride?” to “That’s the weather; what should I wear?

My heartfelt warm, embracing, healing thoughts and prayers are sent to him and to your family. –Mary
