"While the North Diversion Channel is flat it isn't as lovely as the bosque trail and because it's so exposed it's frequently very windy. Another reasonable alternative once you and your 8-year-old have gotten some saddle time is…"

Paul Oostenbrug replied to Chris Iller's discussion KID and OLDER-Parent friendly Bike Trails? in the group Burque Bikers"The North Diversion Channel, which runs from UNM Hospital north almost to Balloon Fiesta Park is quite flat (water flows down hill...) and rather uncrowded. You do have to stop and wait for traffic at major intersections though."

Please be sure to review the rules of the trails first make sure your child has a helmet - it is the law - and enjoy! I agree with Krista…"
Condor replied to Chris Iller's discussion KID and OLDER-Parent friendly Bike Trails? in the group Burque Bikers"Yes, the Bosque Trail (which runs from Alameda to south of Rio Bravo) is a good choice, and it does get quite busy, especially during nicer weather in the mornings on weekends or after work. Another good choice may the North Diversion Channel…"
Krista replied to Chris Iller's discussion KID and OLDER-Parent friendly Bike Trails? in the group Burque Bikers"The bosque trail down by the river stretches across the entire city and is flat. the only downside is that it is also quite packed especially when the weather gets nice. Still, it might be worth checking out."

Chris Iller posted a discussionWhere can I wash & dye my sofa cover?
We bought a new couch, and the cat peed on it promptly, leaving a stain right in the middle. I took the cover off, and would like to have it washed for the smell at least, but can't find a place in ABQ that can fit it in their washer. I also wouldn't mind getting the light colored stain out and dye it back to it's brown color. Anybody know of a place in ABQ that will do this? Or am I just out of luck.Help.See More

Chris Iller replied to Gary Seven's discussion John and the Poptarts - No More (93.3 KKOB FM)"It happened. John is now doing the official voice for My50-TV and Leah is the new VJ starting Monday. They have a press release and a video on their website: my50.tv"
Chris Iller commented on Richard V's blog post How available is local TV?"Yes, all local channels are free. The Comcast people are evil. I dropped all cable back in June. I bought a TIVO...hooked up an out-door antenna. Works great.
But if I want to watch a cable show, I download it off of Amazon-on-Demand straight to my…"
Chris Iller replied to shotsie's discussion So, Comcast is sending some not-so-subtle hints lately...."I ditched cable and bought a Tivo. I get my local channels. It has Netflix. It also connects to Amazon.com on Demand and you can pay for the cable shows you watch...which is cheaper then having cable.
I purchase it on Amazon and it downloads to the…"

Chris Iller replied to Gary Seven's discussion John and the Poptarts - No More (93.3 KKOB FM)"I miss John and the Pop Tarts too. I start listening when it was John, Leah and Kit Missile. Kit left and Katie Fitter joined the Pop Tarts for awhile. But John and Leah were the staples. Here is an idea I want to throw out there...and would…"
Chris Iller replied to abqmom's discussion APS 2009-10 School Supply List!?"I know this discussion is old, but was just re-reading. Of course portables are buildings! Nobody is denying that at all. It's not even really the point. But anybody should be able to tell that their is a difference. Portables are temporary…"
Chris Iller replied to abqmom's discussion APS 2009-10 School Supply List!?"I've seen brand new schools start off with portables. Always seemed crazy not to just start off with a bigger building. Is it less expensive to cool off/heat up several small buildings or cool off/heat up more rooms in a big building? I always…"
