How can I come up with a clip-like solution so I can mountain bike in my ski boots?

The ski boots are likely to be too large to use a traditional toe clip.  Skip the toe clip and use a mountain bike cage type pedal.  To add power, add a couple of toe clip straps.  With the large size of the boots, you may have to use two straps per pedal attached together in series.  You may also want to look at the "bear trap" style cage pedals that have a much larger surface area.  Add the two straps per side and you're in business.  The ski boots should be stiff enough that the straps won't gouge into your feet.

I am assuming you are referring to the Nashbar Trekking handlebars.  These handlebars are 25.4 mm (1.0 inches) in diameter.  You should be able to re-use the brakes and shifters from your bike.\n\nVisit the REI website and look at the setup on the Novara Safari touring bike.  You'll probably want to purchase extended foam grips or tape.

Wal-Mart has a really good selection of mountain bikes and they are carring really good brands (Mongoose, Schwinn) and you could probably get a really nice one and some accessories for that price!

What you are looking for I believe is called a "Collet",  If you look at a camera tripod with round legs or an adjustable cane you will see how they work.  Do a Froogle under Hardware collet, you should find something.  There is another cheaper technique that uses a loose piece that jams in one direction. You can see these in the hardware store on pipe clamps and on some adjustable tent poles.

You need to have your bindings mounted to fit your boot. If you haven't done this before I would take them to your local ski shop and have them do it for you. \n\nAlso make sure that you have your DINs set correctly.

Get thee to your local bike shop.  Ask for leg warmers.  Otherwise, check performance.com, velowear.com, velogear.com, etc...

i would recommend checking in with a rental shop when you get to the mountain, with the new parabolic ski technology and even a "smart ski" (see link below)try out some demo's before and if you decide to buy, if you a "couple times a season" skier i wouldnt buy at all, and always rent. that way you get to ski on new tech every time.\n\n the binding is the most important aspect of skiing levels...don't lie about your height weight or ability level here!\n\nthe only question you need to ask your self is, "how fast do i want to go!"

Probably like a Foot Locker or something like that.

A piece of 3/4 plywood might be a good place to start. Use bolts, u-bolts or dowels to hold the tubes in place long enough to tack the joints. You may be able to use something like B-line also. I used spare pieces of B-line (slotted angle steel) for a few bicycle choppers and sissy bars. Good Luck!

You can buy a cushioned bike seat-cover.  If you can't afford it, try making one yourself, using fluffy cushioned material.
