It’s always a great day to ride!
Hello and welcome! I'm writing this Blog to serve as a place to share my enthusiasm for several of my passions.
Cycling I will primarily discuss and share knowledge that I have learned over the years about cycling and bicycle touring, (particularly self supported bicycle touring.) I plan on adding information on severals levels, the hope being that everyone will find something useful. Whether you are; new to cycling, have a child just learning to ride, just starting to cycle again after many years off the bike or if you're a hard core touring cyclist my hope is you'll find something helpful or at least interesting within these pages. Some of the Cycling Subjects I plan on covering include:
- Great Cycling books (I've read a ton of them!)
- Must have cycling accessories (to make your time on the bike more comfortable)
- How to (from choosing a new bike to fixing a flat, yes, there is a better way!)
- Maintenance hints, tips and tricks
- Choosing touring & camping equipment
- Review of cycling equipment
- Cool cycling stories
- Cycling Safety
- Cycling for beginners (Clothes, Safety, Techniques… You name it!)
- Why Cycling is such a great past time
- And much more…
I invite all cyclists to participate in the Blog, if you have questions ask away and if you know of some great fix, trick or technique feel free to share!
Thoreau
I'll also Blog about Henry David Thoreau, transcendentalism and life. If you are at all interested in philosophy or have a desire to attempt to understand this world we live in I invite you to join the Blog.
Life
This Blog category is wide open folks, to quote Forest Gump "Life is like a box of chocolates; you never know what your gonna get" and that will be the rule for blog entries on life.
Enjoy and keep the rubber on the road!
