Plastic bags and bottles can take 1000 years to decompose, so Two Knobby Tires is proud to sell eco-friendly backpacks made from recycled PET, the dominant material used in plastic bottles. The owners of Two Knobby Tires use the recycled PET backpacks as their biking backpack for running errands, carrying their two year old’s accessories (e.g., diapers, snacks), and going to the library.

I’m looking forward to running a 10K next weekend as part of the Nike Human race. I’m also looking forward to cooler weather in Florida, although that probably doesn’t count!

I’m looking forward to Halloween baking! I always bake for Halloween and have fun decorating cupcakes, cookies, etc.!
I’m a beginning runner, so I’m looking forward to the 4 mile mark. And, an Open House party at our new abode.
I’m looking forward to going home for a weekend — I haven’t been back since January and I miss everyone.
Is that backpack waterproof? I’d love to find a waterproof backpack so I can keep cycling to work even when it rains.

I’m looking forward to my first 5K since high school in a week and a half! I admit that I signed up for it because the times for the awards in my age group seemed rather doable… My friend and I will be running in bumblebee costumes.
And I’m looking forward to your blog, as always! I continue to love it — especially now the Bittman Challenge!
Chelsea, we have a backpack but have not used it in the rain. I tested it in my kitchen sink. It is somewhat water resistant but not waterproof. The seams allow water to pass through. The fabric deters water but slowly absorbs some too. It should be okay to use in a drizzle because the top of the backpack seals tightly when you put it on.
I am looking forward to a fun-filled Halloween party next weekend! And I am linking back to you from my blog: http://triathena.wordpress.com. I found you through Chelsea.
Awesome!! The thing I’m looking forward to most this month is actually this Saturday – we’re having a Dasher/Splasher bash. Hahah such a hard core sounding name right? Those are both teams I trained with over the summer.. and got to meet some really great ladies (*and 2 and occasionally 3 guys). It’s a party hosted at one of the ladies’ house, and it’ll be a great excuse to just catch up with everyone, eat some good food, have a drink, and relax!
2nd entry: I linked to your giveaway on my blog! http://runroamrecycle.wordpress.com/2009/10/12/first-snowfall-sweet-dreams/
