Some days in April 2018 definitely got a check-the-box ride for #30DaysOfBiking. Wheels touched ground, feet touched pedals, pedals and wheels turned but the bike time didn’t merit any cookies or confetti. Some days counted for health, just not transportation,…Continue Reading

Just for fun, a Bike Bingo Bikespedition card for you to play with during National Bike Month — or any time. It’s two-sided with activities chosen that try not to assume you do a certain type of riding. Some are…Continue Reading
So far so good for the annual 30 Days of Biking challenge. It’s April 8 and I’ve ridden my bike every day. That’s sort of a “duh”, usually, at least on weekdays since I ride every day either all the…Continue Reading
