Since it's quiet....

Just saw the dumbest thing of the day (and hope it was any of our members)... :x A Dad on his mtn bike with his young son on a trail-a-bike pulling out onto Shelbourne, sliding around trying to get traction. He made it at least 1.5 blocks with traffic trying to navigate around on undefined lanes. Lo...

Re: FS & Free: arm warmers, booties

Hi Brad,

Again, I'd take these as well as I need some cold weather gear and have nothing much yet. So, if available, let me know.
