Saddle up, ladies: May is National Bike Month and the League of American Bicyclists is promoting May 16 as Bike-to-Work Day. Haven’t got a thing to ride? Fortunately there many bikes made for female contours. The appropriately named Susan B from Terry ($680; pictured) features the all-important comfortable saddle and a stem that brings the handlebars closer to you. Terry’s Fast Woman is lightweight but strong and reliable and offers options like pink rims ($1,000 to $3,000). For top-of-the-line bikes, cruise by Specialized, where you’ll find 2008 Designs for Women Road Models, including the top-of-the-line Ruby SL, touted as the “lightest, fastest and best fitting partner on the road” ($6,300). The Cannondale Six13 Feminine 3 is constructed to dampen vibrations and offers a velvety-smooth ride ($1,800). It is equipped with puncture-resistant Michelins and a Fizik Vitesse Tri saddle, designed specifically for the female physique with a narrow front and wider back. In line with the trend commuting via bicycle in urban areas is Specialized’s Langster line of cycles named after cities, such as the Seattle Langster in an apropos emerald green ($740). Bike with the one you love on the Mocha & Mocha tandem ($5,725). If your best friend is a toy breed, attach this wicker basket ($80) to your handlebars. The Walky Dog attachment ($40) would work for a large dog that wants to run alongside you. Oh, but what to wear on that speed racer? Got you covered. Bike short are so ho-hum. Get revved up in Terry’s black padded flare skort ($90; also available in three prints) topped off with the blue Sheila Moon bolero ($39) and the matching tank top in quick-dry fabric ($54). Combine safety and style with the Giro Skyla helmet with a floral design ($38). Upscale riders will go for Giro Atmos helmet said to be lighter than smoke at nine ounces, with 26 air vents to help keep your scalp cool ($175).

Just today, a young woman out walking her dog intercepted me to ask if I’d seen her other dog, who had gone missing. A few minutes later, I passed the house of a second woman, older, waiting for her canine pal to wander back from his unescorted tour of the neighborhood. (He returned while we were talking). “I look after my dogs,” she said, “but they keep getting out.” The distress and heartbreak of being separated from a lost, much-loved pet is one of the worst feelings out there, which is why the new RoamEO Pet Location GPS System ($400) is worth barking about. The same global positioning satellite technology used in cell phones and navigation is put to work here to pinpoint your dog’s location. The dog wears a specially enabled collar that works with a locator device that shows you, via LCD screen, where he is and where he’s heading next. Best of all, you get to set the geographical parameters, or virtual “fence.” This distinguishes your dog’s allowable roaming range from his out-of-bounds territory. As soon as the dog steps out of bounds, an audible alert is emitted by the device and you’re off to retrieve him with the help of your RoamEO screen, which can display your vagabond pup’s whereabouts within one mile in all directions. With the purchase of additional collars ($175), you can track up to three pets simultaneously; they’ll appear in different colors on the screen. This extraordinary invention isn’t cheap, but it comes with a locator screen, one GPS collar and an AC adapter. I know what you’re thinking: If you use it for your small child and your dog, it could be quite a deal.

Dog tags made of plastic might be fine for some Fidos, but not your four-legged Vera Wag doll of a dog. Besides, they’re not called tags these days but dog charms, and collars aren’t collars but necklaces. Liz Taylor’s dog would look like a million – make that more than $3 million – with one of these diamond tags (pictured) on its collar for $3,496 from AnimalStars. This white leather crystal diamond collar with silver metal and diamond crystal heart tag is a matched set ($145; scroll down on the page). If diamonds aren’t your dog’s best friend, create DIY dog bling using your pup’s birthstone, such as garnet, emerald, sapphire, peridot, opal, topaz and more. Function and form can be had with this Juicy Couture “I’m Lost, Call Daddy” charm ($35). The Woof Fleur de Lis charm comes in pewter ($15), and a percentage of sales benefits New Orleans pet rescue organizations. For star treatment, consider this pink and crystal Paris Hilton Star Lilycharm ($28) at Glamour Dog. A string of pearls is always in vogue (in dogue?), making this Jackie-O pearl pet collar with a magnetic clasp a classic ($55). The Cece Kent Lilly Duchess collar is made of stylish faux snakeskin decorated with crystal stations and a pavé heart charm ($85). At In the Company of Dogs, you’ll find an array of bone and heart-shaped tags cast in sterling silver and hand-engraved with dog’s name ($50). For pet bling galore, you can’t beat Bling Bling 4 Pets; check out the site’s tips on how to pick out a pet charm and the importance of considerations like comfort and weight of the object relative the size of the pet. Add the blessing of St. Francis of Assisi, the patron saint of pets, with this engraved cobalt-blue charm ($13). Cats can, of course, wear these necklaces and charms, too. They might even like to have one. But you know cats, they’ll never tell.

I’ve always rolled my eyes at those froufrou cookies and frosted bakery-style treats for pets that cost more than their for-human-consumption counterparts. Please. As if a cat or dog gets excited by a doughnut. But maybe they do if it tastes really good. After some surfing around the Internet, I discovered that most of the pricey “gourmet” snacks for cats and dogs are so-named because, in fact, they are made of better-quality, more healthful ingredients than the “junk food” available at the supermarket. At Full Petential, the Doggie Sushi ($5.45 for a 6.4-ounce package; they make it for cats, too) contains no byproducts or other fillers, no artificial colors or flavors. The “delectable fish-wrapped, soft chicken breast treat” contains omega fatty acids for the heart, skin and coat (see the ingredients and nutritional analysis here). For your favorite feline, they make Tasty Teasers ($2.82 for a 1.78-ounce package). These low-allergen chicken and potato morsels are high in protein and free of filler. You can even order free samples of the company’s product line (shipping not included). Zuke’s, of Durango, Colo., sells American-made natural dog and cat treats that are free of wheat, corn, soy, byproducts, artificial colors and artificial preservatives. Check out the complete Woof Index, where you’ll find Jerky Naturals ($5.29 for 6 ounces; pictured), a semi-moist treat in meat or fish flavors with ingredients such as fresh blueberries, ground flax seed, apples and carrots. The Meow Index is smaller, with goodies such as salmon or chicken flavored Cat Hip Action ($4.20 for 3 ounces). There are many vendors online competing for your money in this niche market, but how many offer carob- and peanut-butter-flavored Betty Cocker Brownies for dogs? Bone Appetit Bakery recommends them for small breeds and dogs with skin allergies (50 cents each). Check out the entire selection of dog and cat treats and see if you don’t get hungry yourself.
