I got this news today. American Cyclery in San Francisco sent me this:

As you know I am in the midst of a huge seismic retrofit at American Cyclery
I am really being pushed to the limits of what I can endure. They are forcing me to close after December 31st to do a soft story seismic retrofit to our basement, showroom ad workshop. I must remove everything from the shop while this construction happens.

I will be closed for a couple of months, minimum.
if I can squirrel away enough $ to pay my bills while my shop is shut down I can probably reopen in March If not, American Cyclery will have to close for good.

Could you please spread the word to our groups of friends to please come to our yard sale this coming weekend or to stop in the shop this next month and support your friends at American Cyclery.

In all my years of being in business and dealing with the difficulties of owning a shop, I have never had to endure such difficulties.

Attached, find a poster for my yard sale
I will bring every vintage thing I have above ground and let people have at it!
Help me get some CR, Dyno and other bike people to come.

You know I have a ton of stuff from many sources and it all has to be moved somewhere.

Thank you,

We each have so much on our plate. It can be hard to distinguish between IMPORTANT and URGENT. Making decisions and choosing priorities from a place of relaxation can help you live based on what is IMPORTANT to you.

No More Freeways PDX

“In November, dozens of community groups joined us in asking ODOT for a two month extension to the public comment period. ODOT instead granted only two weeks, and only after ceding to political pressure from civic leaders. Given the catastrophic increase of neighborhood air pollution and regional carbon emissions that this project entails, it is crucially important that the community be given a meaningful opportunity to speak out about the concerns of ODOT’s freeway widening proposal.”

We encourage community members across the region concerned about congestion, carbon, and air pollution to join us in submitting testimony against this $500 million exercise in climate denial and please attend ODOT's upcoming public events.

Maks Zechel weighs in on what it's like being an aspiring Olympian when a growing number people are losing faith in clean sports:

"Clean sport isn’t important just so that medals are handed out to the rightful winners; sport must remain possible for real people everywhere, because when doping is left unchecked, sport loses all significance as a tool to inspire, bring people together, and make the world a better place."
