Conservative fringe wingnuts are spreading false rumors that the healthcare reform bill passed by the U.S. House of Representatives contains a requirement that microchips be implanted in Americans before they can receive healthcare. To hear the extremists tell it, "This sort of device would be implanted in the majority of people who opt to become covered by the public health care option," according to an article posted on Current.com.

  I'm not eligible for the bike contest because I'm in Canada *sniff*, but I thought you'd like to know that both green and white tea have about 10% the caffeine of a coffee (drip), so you should feel free to imbib.

  I learned to ride a bike with my dad holding onto the back of the seat, and running along behind me. I kept saying "don't let go, don't let go" and then at one point I turned around and he'd let go and I'd been riding by myself for a bit, but then I got nervous and skidded on sand and fell. I got back on, though, and have loved riding ever since.

  P.S. I'm about a third of the way through your book and am loving it!

  I don't remember ever learning how to ride a bike, it must not have been a memorable experience. But I do remember summers from the age of 10 thru 13 when I lived on my bike. My friends and I would bike all over town and to the pool and back every day. We would be out from morning till dark, only going home long enough to eat.
  Now that I'm older (35), I am much more fearful of gravity, the bikes just don't seem as stable as they were when I was younger and lighter. I've tried to ride a bike recently and it is much harder than I remember. My kids would love for me to go out with them in the neighborhood, but I need a lot more practice before I can venture past the driveway!

  My first bike was a strawberry shortcake contraption, pink and white with a white wicker basket in the front. I loved that bike so much, and rode it every day until the day I crashed into my sister and broke her arm. Coordinated, not so much.

  Saw the interview, you looked great!

  I'm not sure how I learned how to ride a bike. I do remember being on my bike (with training wheels) at about the of 6 with one of my friends, when her 4 year old brother blew by me (without training wheels). After that I begged my parents to let me ride without training wheels. And yes I'm still friends with her and her little brother STILL makes fun of me 16 years later!

  My first bike ride was a traumatic experience. My dad had been holding the back of my bike and walking me around the road for a few days, the big day finally arrived when I told my dad "I am ready to do it by myself." My dad was so proud, he pushed me for a while then let go of me. I was so happy as I was riding, coasting really, down a hill. Only problem was nobody had told me how to STOP the bike, so I crashed into a parked car and my bike broke into several pieces. Took me a long time to ever get back on, but I eventually did!

  It was my 7th birthday and I KNEW that I would be getting a bike, as I had hounded my parents for one for months before the actual big day. My dad rolled my beloved new bike into the front yard - it was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen! It was pink and purple with a white banana seat and a white plastic basket on the front. The streamers from the handle bars were pink and purple and I thought I had never seen anything so fancy in my whole entire life. Dad told me to hop on, so I did and with him holding on to the back of the seat, away we went down the sidewalk, a little wobbly at first, but after awhile, I was riding cautiously alone. I remember telling my dad how smooth the ride was, not like my old rusty tricycle. I must have put a hundred thousand miles on that bike. *sigh* I wish I had it now!!

  I don't really remember much about learning to ride a bike. I do remember though, that one of my best childhood memories is being hoisted on to one of those kiddie seats while my brother rode his bikes with me behind him. I haven't spoken to my brother in three years (or more) and he's very indifferent to me, nowadays. I wish we could go back to where he would strap me to the back of his bike.

  Hi! I love your blog and this is my first comment.

  I learned to ride a pink huffy. I loved that bike. I would spend hours riding up and down the driveway until I was finally able to take to the not-well-traveled country road we lived on. I have always gotten joy from riding a bike. With my recent weight loss of 86 (eeeks!) pounds, I have again started to enjoy riding. I have been taking a spin class twice a week and taking long rides with my husband on the weekend. It is amazing how strong and freeing it feels to be in this new healthy, active lifestyle.

  Thanks so much for your inspiration.

  Aww MAN! Stoopid Scottish residency! The bike colours reminds me of a jar of Vegemite :)

  I was 9 years old when my grandmother bought the pink Schwinn with a banana seat for me at a garage sale. The next day, I walked to her house and my aunt taught me to ride it. There was a small hill in grandma's yard. At first I coasted down with my legs to the side, then with my feet resting on the pedals, and finally I started pedaling on the way down the hill. I kept on pedaling...

  I also learned on a pink huffy. I loved to bike right away, but I wasn't allowed to go very far from my house, and riding in circles around the parking lot got old... so the poor bike sat unused. We moved and I was allowed to go further afield at the new place - but I didn't understand that bikes had air in their tires and oil on their chains, and the bike that had been sitting unused needed both. All of the sudden, biking seemed really, really hard!

  I was shocked, more than ten years later, when I got on a bike and was able to go faster than a brisk walking pace. Now I bike to work and most errands, and it's great - as long as I remember to lube the chain and keep the tires full.. which reminds me of something I should be doing...

  Thanks PQ!

  I don’t remember learning how to ride a bike. I suppose it wasn’t a memorable experience (unlike learning to roller skate for which I still have the scars to remind me). I do remember having a pink bicycle with plastic rainbow tassels and a white basket in the front. My bike had the metal pedals (before plastic was deemed safer for kids) and my shins had the bruises to prove it. During the ages of 8-12, I lived on my bicycle, only coming inside when it was time for dinner. It was a great time in the 80’s where every house on my block had a child my age and we all rode around as if we owned the neighborhood. I distinctly recall riding with a basketball in one hand to duel my brothers at the park, then riding to the nearest McDonald’s for free iced water. I haven’t ridden since my brother g
