Roxbury Safeway is outside of Seattle. They’ll double bag it in plastic or paper, too!
Hello,
I saw your ad here on West Seattle Blog. I am interested in the day time walking position. And. I am filling out the application on your site. Thank you for your time.

I’m looking for an Adult Depression Support Group in West Seattle. Can anyone help? Something that meets weekly. A resource to help dealing with depression and anxiety. Thank you so much.
The wifey is looking for a good fitness class that doesn’t charge an arm and a leg to go/join and doesn’t commit you to a long term agreement in case it doesn’t work out for her, she has a back injury. She’s noticed “Fitness with a Purpose” in the Greenbridge area and was wondering about it??? any other good ideas would be much appreciated!
OH we live in the North Shorewood area.
If you or maybe a friend have a COSTCO card, travel to a store outside of Seattle (Tukwila?) and purchase in bulk. There is a Safeway on 128th/1st Ave in Burien and a Fred Meyer a bit further down on 1st that you could purchase the Gatorade at.
I do understand being brand specific. Even a slight difference in taste, smell or consistency can make consumption impossible for someone dealing with cancer.
JanS: I didn’t excuse rude, angry cyclists as you seem to think. I said that they are out there as are rude angry drivers. The chief difference is that rude, angry cyclists don’t kill cars. I also didn’t say anything at all like what you’re ascribing to me. I said that a lot of road cyclists are assertive and their aggressive style MAY come from a desire to not be turned into a pancake. As I’ve pointed out in other cycling threads; I have a right to be on the roadway. It’s not a privilege, it’s a right.
Your desire for me to lecture fellow cyclists is ridiculous. I can just visualize some other cyclist shaking their finger at me for what they believe to be bad behavior. I’d likely just ride away.
EdSane: As I stated above; I have a right to be on the roadway. Before you get all up in arms regarding liability consider that motorcycles and collectors vehicles are exempted from insurance requirements in this state. As to my violating traffic laws, yes, I have. Tell me you haven’t…ever.
Sorry to say, angry drivers who have to watch cyclists move faster than them in this city, comparing cars and bikes is ridiculous in the extreme. I might dent you body work while a car would maim or kill me. Bear in mind that Washington state law says that you must provide 3′ of space around me.(<http://www.dol.wa.gov/business/drivertraining/docs/bicycletestanswers.pdf). Perhaps I’ll be more concerned about cyclist behavior that only really endangers themselves when drivers start to understand the laws that govern bicycles and there interaction and use of the roads.
Unfortunately for the cycling community, drivers get away with injuring or killing cyclists at an alarming rate. There have been many articles stating statistics about this in periodicals that are not bicycle centered.
Ok, so yes, Edsane is fine with millions of dollars of government money being spent on small, hard-to-read tags on a bike so he can report them when they take the lane (legally) or do other things that are either illegal or inconveniencing to him. This despite the fact that cyclists causing accidents and injuries is extremely rare. Cyclists being annoying and/or a$$es occurs about as much as drivers doing similar things, though the consequences of a driver in a 2,000 lb vehicle are far worse. And back up to the original poster’s fear of being found at fault in a cyclist/car collision: drivers are very rarely cited for hitting cyclists, even when they are killed. But we should still spend resources on going after the cyclists.
Mark47..rude, angry, aggressive cyclists – that’s OK with you? Take care of your own,call them out when they are wrong, and stop saying it’s only car drivers that are the aggressive one. Please, you know better than that. I have a lot of respect for most cyclists, but that doesn’t excuse the assholes in the crowd. . I’ll watch your back when I drive, you watch mine..fair?.

cyclists on sidewalks are a hazard to pedestrians
you know. people who walk.
I apologize, but we did everything we could to try to find out, as explained in the story. Called multiple Coast Guard “after hours media info” numbers multiple times, in addition to (after getting the series of 5 am texts) scouring flight trackers, marine trackers, Twitter, etc. The trackers did not show a single identified aircraft or vessel in the area at the time. (On occasion, rescuers are detectable because a vessel that IS identified – such as a state ferry – shows up, off course.) Military/Homeland Security aircraft don’t show up on trackers, and their radio transmissions are not monitorable either, so unlike SPD and Guardian One type activity, there was nothing we could have had even any remote hope of picking up via radio. Sorry, we do our best, pulled out everything in our bag of tricks, but sometimes it does take hours to get info. – TR
To be clear I don’t think bicyclists should be in the streets at all if there are sidewalks available. I realize that opinion is in the minority and that we are required to ‘share’ the road. That said I’m tired of the cyclists who break traffic laws and hog the road. Those actions are dangerous and can/do lead to injury. And I think there would be less of those actions if they had a large identifying tag on the back of the bicycle.
@TSurly, why the personal attack?
hahahaha…but, but…Benghazi…the OP asked a legit question, and at least 2 people made excuses, blaming car drivers. Yes, we know you think there are too many cars, and I agree. Hell, there are too many people, with too many cars. But the OP makes a point. You need to lecture your fellow bicyclists on their bad behavior. We’re all in this together, want the same goal, and that’s getting home safe at night.
Entertainment Center 50″ wide x 48″ high x 16″ deep. I don’t have any use for it anymore. In excellent shape. Typical wooden laminate particle board. all corners and sides in great shape. Two small cabinets on the bottom. Rack for 5 audio/video components. Middle TV space: 28″ wide x 26″ deep x 16″ deep. If the add is still up, then yep, it’s still available. Thanks for looking.
I was thinking the same thing but didn’t bring it up. I better be careful not to upset him, he may start sending motars and bottle rockets over my house.
When did you leave your bicycle? By the end of the year they were closed. We published their closing announcement in early December:
BIZNOTES, JUNCTION EDITION: West Seattle Cyclery closing; two openings; one move
Did you already try info@westseattlecyclery.com ? Checking one of their social-media pages, they said they were making arrangements to get repaired bikes to their owner but could be contacted that way, otherwise.
Good luck! – TR

it appears you do fall back on the rule of law when unlawful behavior affects you … ;-)

I put my bike in repair at West Seattle Cyclery toward the end of last year and it needed parts ordered specially. I was out of the country over the holiday period and came back to find the shop closed and empty. I presume (hope!) they still have my bike but have no contact details.
Does anybody have any contact with the former owner and could help me track down my bike.
Many thanks

No I don’t because it’s impracticable, and I say that as someone who also drives a car. Would you also propose going after every 5 to 15 year old who rides their Huffy on a public street?
@EdSane there are a**holes everywhere, in cars and on bikes. Current state law does not require bicycles to be licensed, and until it does, please stop using that tired argument. The bottom line is when a cyclist makes a dangerous or illegal maneuver on the road, they are often held accountable by having the fear of god struck in them, road rash, broken bones or worse. The choice to do something stupid on a bike has nothing to do with anonymity. It is the same bad decision that someone chooses to do behind the wheel of a car.
@TSurly, I agree a dashcam also capture bad drivers too! and certainly helps with an insurance claim when it is a he said he said situation. That said, wouldn’t you agree that cyclists need the same accountability. They should also carry ‘license plates’ so we can identify the ones who flagrantly break laws and potentially lead to accidents. mark47n admitted on this very forum that they disregards traffic control laws and I wonder if the calculus of that choice is directly related to the anonymity of cyclists. Drivers do not have that luxury.
A landscaper delivered more wood chips than I need. First come, first served; they are next to the sidewalk / street on 30th Avenue SW between Kenyon & Elmgrove.
