Ryan Cousineau was kind enough to loan me one of his two years ago, and I rode the Skytrain out to meet him, then took it back to where I was staying. I then crashed his bike a few days later. While apparently his bike came out of that OK, the scars still twitch on my knee from time to time. -- Warm Regards, Claire Petersky http://www.bicyclemeditations.org/ See the books I've set free at: http://bookcrossing.com/referral/Cpetersky
