I have an older BMW jacket and pants that need some repairs, specifically zippers (pant pocket), velcro replacement, and a kind of snap attachment. Any recommendations near the Peninsula?

Per San Mateo County: HWY 84 in Woodside will be closed in both directions for approximately 2 days! PG&E on scene replacing downed wires and poles! Local traffic only! Drive safely!

Warning just went out about black ice on 35 and 84. Today my wife is working from home and she made me take the car since she wants dinner brought back tonight. She probably saved me from a tumble, because two curves on Westridge in Portola Valley were completely iced over.

No longer for sale. I'm posting this for a colleague who is active military and is about to go back overseas. He had a deal fall through and is now very eager to sell. Here is the Craigslist link. If you are interested, contact John at john8tina@yahoo.com or call (253) 777-7158. For sale...

Sobering scene this morning as I drove past a bicyclist under a tarp. Can't be sure but it looked like a car was coming down the hill, westbound, preparing to get on 280 or perhaps go left to stay on Page Mill, and the cyclist might have been trying to cross the road to get to Old Page Mill. So...

Question from my wife, who was buzzing along this morning in Portola Valley (in a car) and said an LEO had his radar on her and was displaying "an evil grin," but she wasn't pulled over. Are speeding tickets issued by mail? I suggested to her that it might have been Satan and not a cop, but...

It's now up at http://www.motorcycleshows.com. Looks like no San Mateo this year--instead, they'll be in Sacramento Nov. 6–8. I suppose I could be wrong and it might be added later.

Over the next two weeks several roads here are going to be resurfaced, including Alpine and Westridge. Today I was heading westbound on Westridge and as I was coming down the hill there was a sign: "loose gravel." I slowed down a little, thinking that they spilled some gravel here and there...

Think I've finally learned my lesson. In the morning I back my bike out and twice I've nailed my left foot between the kickstand and the ground. It's wonderfully painful, but hey, at least I had my moto boots on. Well, today I got home and thought I would lube the chain while it was still warm...

I use 31- or 33-decibel disposable earplugs on my bike. But I'm planning on attending a music show at a club, a.k.a. what we called a "concert" in my youth, for the first time in years. I can't afford to subject my ears to the full volume of the show. Anyone have suggestions for suitable...

Heading south on Page Mill at the right to go west on Arastradero, heading toward the Pearson Preserve, a decent-sized pothole has formed right at the turn. It's pretty obvious but I can imagine once it gets dark and the rain is coming down, you might not spot it, and get a rude surprise.

I just put my moto's registration sticker on my car plate. I started to try to peel it off, but of course it won't without being destroyed. They're both exactly the same, except for the number following the "R", which as far as I can tell is not specifically tied into anything about the...

Was stowing my helmet the other day while out and about and under the seat saw the classic tatty web of a black widow. Excuse the poor photo; you can barely make out the spider in the right corner, guarding my registration below. A couple days later I had a chance to clean out the spider and...

Pulled in next to what looked like a BMW R 1200 RT, but when I left it had been replaced with something a little bigger. People are so desperate for spaces near Philz. Caught him when he was leaving...

So, took an MSF course, got my license, got my bike (had it towed to and from the shop rather than riding it), got my gear. Before I start commuting next week I'd like to spend some time over the weekend in a lot practicing braking, etc. Any tips on good places to do that in Portola Valley?

Greetings. I hope I'm not jumping the gun by saying hello before I am licensed and have a machine. My wife and I have a one-car household and her job just moved from Palo Alto to Redwood City, so it's not really viable for her to drop me off at Stanford anymore, nor is it realistic for me to...
