Bikes!

[kristinhaze.livejournal.com]

I just bought a bike...and I'm very new to biking in general. You DO forget how to ride a bike. Trust me. It happens. So, I'm planning on taking MassBike classes and everything and I took out my bike yesterday to test it out and I know of the Minuteman Bike Path, originating at Alewife - but can I get there from Davis? I noticed two little paths that seem to just terminate...one at the T station and the other at some residencial area where the air smells very sweet. I'm wary right now about any road riding, so I would walk my bike over crossways, and I have looked online for exact street names/directions to get to the Bike Path from Davis but I'm not having luck. Any tips? Thank you!

Hello all - Does anyone know if the Salvation Army/Goodwill or any local charities take gently used lines? Like bath towels, blankets etc?

Cheap hotels/motels in Somerville/Cambridge?

My parents are going to try and come visit me on the 16th-18th of this month, however it seems all hotels are over $100 a night! Does anyone have any suggestions for cheaper alternatives in the area? Smaller motels? Bed and breakfasts? Someplace that won't be horribly expensive? I appreciate your help :)

Rent increase

[prunesnprisms.livejournal.com]

We are hoping this is a typo, but it seems that our landlord may have just increased our rent from $1500 for a 2br, 5 room place quite near to Davis to $1825. Craigslist does not indicate that this is consistent with the market, as far as we're seeing. Seem a little odd to anyone? Is there something we haven't considered? We were braced for a $25/month increase as of a notice in April, but this is quite a bit more than that, as you can see.

ETA:

Thanks everyone! We finally got in touch with our property manager and it WAS a typo.

Almost as good as free beer and chocolate!
