Bike2Work

Three cheers for the latest UK/US collaboration! Two cycling mavens written about before in our blog, Carlton Reid and Tim Grahl, have completed their book, Bike to Work, and to borrow their words, it is a page-flippin' beauty! To download a free 50 page sampler , go to http://tinyurl.com/Bike2Work. Once you do, I bet you won't be able to wait for the full 250 page version due out at the end of December.

How Not To Get Hit By Cars!

I thought that title would get your attention....so you're thinking about dusting off the bike and using it to help stem the $4.50+/gallon bleeding?? Well its probably time for a refresher course in bike safety....no, not one of those cheesy movies or videos you saw in health class in school....here's a great guide (from which I shamelessly took the title of today's post) for you to bookmark, read and pay attention to! http://bicyclesafe.com/

Thank you, Michael Bluejay.

Bicycle Anatomy for Beginners

Carlton Reid has created a wonderful tutorial for bike beginners. You know who you are, you love bikes - love the idea of them - ride a little - but still aren't quite sure what language your serious riding buddies are speaking when talking about upkeep. This video will help. Really. Check it out.

Oh, and another cool thing - the music was created by using bike parts. Clever.
