It must be a sign. (And, if I’m to be honest, they’re the First Three Non-Spam Items That Didn’t Get Automatically Sorted to Another Folder. That’s a lot to put into a post title.) Technorati Tags: BikeSource,Performance Bicycle,Bike Nashbar

Local cyclist, Steve Barbour, was struck by a pickup truck on Saturday July 18. He died from his injuries several days later. Barbour was hit right around 6 a.m., near at the intersection of Norwich Street and Cemetery road (which, per Google is .4 miles from my home). It is not hard to imagine that [...]
A few weeks ago I put together a camera mount for my bike and shot a video. A couple of weeks after that I edited the video. Here it is: (A tip of my hat to Marty for all the work he puts into his videos.) Technorati Tags: Cycling,Hilliard,Old Hilliard
Most Sundays, Marty, of Banal Leakage, puts up a video of himself tooling around Utah on his scooter. (In the winter the videos are replaced with Snowy Sunday videos).

Last Friday I took The New Bike into Bike Source to take advantage of their Winter Service Sale which, I think, was 15% off the normal price. The Mighty Schwinn went decades between trips to be serviced. Of course, the last two summers (the summers when I was putting one and two thousand miles on [...]
How’d I forget to do this? Cycling: Last year pedaled the bike right around 1,750 miles. I’m not sure of the exact mileage – I checked the other day in preparation for this entry but forgot the total. And it doesn’t matter. The goal was 3000 miles and I fell far short regardless of what [...]
Is that it’s 12F outside. That’s –11C [thanks to Lady P for point out my typo] to my metric friends. Oh, and with the wind chill – assuming a person was standing still – the temps are 1F and –17C. Yes. You can see the snow falling. You can see the roads are snowy and [...]
