Richard! If you have a pavement issue in the City of San Diego, please help
us get it fixed. First, call the City hotline (619) 527-7500 and report the
hazard. Second, send us a picture of the problem so we can post it on our
website. Third, let us know when and if the city takes care of the problem. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

of Action Cyclery, 9910-C Mira Mesa Blvd, SD 92131. We will ride up
to Miramar Lake, around the Lake and back to Action Cyclery, about 8 miles
total. If you don't want to ride UP the hill to the lake, you may
opt to meet us between 9:15 and 9:30 in the parking lot near the
restrooms at the Lake. This will be our FIRST ride all the way around the
Lake since it has been re-opened. Some of us might even want to go around
twice :-) It is about 5 miles around the lake. Don't miss
this lovely ride. As always, feel free to invite neighbors, friends,
family, etc.........all are welcome. There might even be some donuts and
coffee involved!!!<o:p></o:p></span></p>

searching for people with diabetes (type II) that have found cycling as a
source of exercise. He’s looking to interview people who have started or
re-discovered the sport and continue to ride regularly. Any age, male/female

have also found that they reap other benefits from cycling, such as weight
loss. He wants to speak with you for a few minutes or swap questions through
