    • Looks like a new Nutcase helmet there. She used to have a candy apple red one that matched my bike. Guess I should repaint my bike …

    I read in the _New_York_Times_ that she wears “a rubber band — often blue, saved from a bushel of green onions bought at a farmer’s market — around one pant leg.” That’s my kind of BikeStyle!
