Why you should always go to bike co-ops


We often pop to bike shops to ask for small favor - a question, advice, some screws, tightening here and there. We normally go to a community bike shops and so far we always had great experience there. |For example in Portland a guy spent half an hour or more adjusting the breaks with Raul and checking other stuff and when we wanted to pay he said 'it's OK., you are on a long trip, save your money'. Recently in Santa Cruz we spent like 4 hours working on our bikes in the local bike co-op and for all the time spent, some small parts and help (lots of help!) we were charged $5 only!
Today, a day before living US, we realized that Marta's head set wobbles, so we popped to the nearest bike shop; 5 min, and the head set was tightened - they asked us for $10!!!!
Support bike co-ops!

We just wanted to wish you all

Merry Christmas

Wesołych Świąt

Feliz Navidad

from California :)

hey,
do you want to know how did it happened that our supposed-to-be-uneventful ride to San Francisco turned into day after day surprise? Check the journal!

Heaven, we are in heaven...


Hey! We've just realized that that what California is - paradise on Earth!
The weather is perfect, it is beautiful here, there is wine, there is plenty of food (you can farm fruit and vegetables all year long) and all Saints live here (San Francisco, Santa Rosa, Santa Monica, San Jose, San Rafael, San Diego etc. etc.)!!!
Do you want a taste of the Afterlife? Come along! ;)

Cirque du Solei

Yes! We were so lucky to see Cirque du Solei Live! This was definitely the highlight of our stay in San Francisco, however beautiful and interesting this city is!
The show was amazing! Probably the best show we've ever seen. Whoever knows Cirque du Solei, can understand what we are talking about; whoever doesn't - hight time to check them out :)
Thank you Santa! ;)


That's just a taste of what we saw
