Read a little on Trek's website and they have five women who blog regularly.
Stephanie's story is familiar to many of us at Trek, from saving money for six months for a new set of wheels that cost more than her first car, to the Zen feeling she gets from truing a wheel. And only after two years of riding she says, "I know what cadence means, how many watts is a lot. I can fix a flat in my sleep and tell the difference between a pinch flat and goat head at 50 yards."

Oh and I am excited that the prime rate is 5.0 as posted in the Wall Street Journal. Fantastic for borrowers, pity I cannot lock it. And Joseph if you are reading this, I called Putnam today and have instructions on how to exit the Voyager Fund!! Mom has to call and liquidate it because she the custodian, but yeah!!! Last quarter was awful economically... Putnam Voyager lost $2.11 a share.
Last quote from today's Focus on the Family father's day issue p24-25
While the postmodern culture belittles the role of men, it plays an entirely different role in the lives of girls. By telling girls that they should rise to the top of their chosen careers while simultaneously trying to nurture their families, we place an enormous burden on them. The generation of women who bought into this false notion face unprecedented levels of stress, depression and heart disease.
In a paper and here in the blog I should limit my quotes and instead paraphrase with my own sentences sandwiching it. Why don't I?
