   Thanks for including 2cycle2gether on the list!! Great work by the way on the list.

   WOW – no idea how you found me, but I am pleased as punch to be included in the list! As of late, the bike blog has been more about running than cycling, but I am ever inspired to keep it up, with much thanks to you and other ladies out there!

   Thanks for including Bikergo Gal! And featuring me today on twitter!

   And I think the blog should be written by women–not photos by men of women on bikes !

    Thanks so much for including Loop-Frame Love on your list! What a great idea! We have four cobloggers, and not all of us are on Twitter, so we created an account for the blog: @LoopFrameLove.

    Thanks for including the Grease Rag! Might want to add: @greaseragmpls

    I think it would be interesting to know what people look for when they look for bike blogs written by women, because there are so many different types out there! I personally love blogs that show the day-to-day accessibility of biking, blogs written by women that live in the midwest cities, and blogs that have enthusiasm for living car-free and I love to read about new and exciting ways that women are encouraging each other to bike.

    I know that others are more into fitness, or fashion, and probably a ton of other sub-genres that I don’t even know about! I’m curious about what people read and why. Do you have any ideas about that?

    Our blog is a collaborative blog about teaching mechanical skills to WTF (women/ trans/ femme) cyclists in Minneapolis, riding together, and socializing. Thanks again for the shout-out!

13. Bike Style Spokane on August 21, 2011 at 9:13 pm said:

    Glad you stopped by, Low!

    I started trying to categorize the blogs so you could find them by interests. Some are quite clear: they’re about racing, or cyclocross, or mountain biking, or fashion, or touring, or whatever. Others are personal blogs that roam across lots of topics, with biking in there a little or a lot, and the categories were all my own assessment of the primary focus.

    I may give it a try on the next update, though–put up a table format with a couple of cells for primary and secondary topics and invite the bloggers to tell me if I got them right.

    In creating the list I logged a lot of Internet miles and didn’t stop to evaluate every blog’s topic so completing the table will definitely take some time. It would add to the utility and I want this to be a growing resource.
14. Patrick Barber on August 24, 2011 at 10:21 am said:

    I’m flattered you included my blog Vélocouture; it is written by a man (me) but as much of the content is reader-sourced, a lot of it (perhaps most of it?) comes from women who document their experiences.

    I’m on twitter too so you can add that. @patrickbarber. All best.

    Thank you for adding me to your list. My blog is “I Never Promised You an Organic Garden”. It is exciting to see so many other women cyclists. Here in Richmond, Indiana there are not very many women cyclists and certainly not many women bike commuters.

    Hi !
    Thanks for this list, I will enjoy looking through them all.

    I live (and ride lots) in the Vancouver BC area
    but also travel around and bike wherever I go

    I have 2 bike blogs that I maintain, one is for easy cycling for kids, families, little-old-lady riders, etc
    It is called Let’s Go Biking and the url is http://www.letsgobiking.net/

    The other blog is for rides I have enjoyed and think others might, or cycle travelling around the world, or for interesting links and articles on Bike Clothing, etc.
    It is called Cycling Cycling Cycling and the url is http://www.colleenrides.com/

    If possible, could you add these to your list? Much appreciated ! ~ Colleen MacDonald

    Thanks for contacting me. What an extensive list! Never knew there were so many other women cyclists out there who blog. I’m just starting but hopefully I’ll contribute enough to warrant a spot on your list.

    Hi, Barb!

    Incredible list. wow.wow.wow.
    This morning’s post on Girlsonbikes.org mentions the list. I wish there was some way we could all be collaborative and present a semi-united front! Perhaps this list is the start.

    In case you are updating, girlsonbikes.org (me) is located in Portland, OR

44. Barb from Bike Style Spokane on November 23, 2011 at 7:27 am said:

    Aha! April, you solved the mystery. Traffic to the blog shot off the charts (relative to past performance) yesterday and is already spiked this morning beyond a normal day. Thank you! Getting featured on a Portland bike blog is like the Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval
45. Barb from Bike Style Spokane on November 23, 2011 at 7:32 am said:

    Oh, on the “semi-united front” front–I thought of designing a little icon we could all display on our blogs. There are so many and the list keeps changing so it’s not realistic for all to link to all, but if all link to the list then the list drives traffic back out to the blogs on the list. So far today over 200 people have looked at blogs and it’s only 7:30 a.m. my time.

    With Interbike so close, it felt appropriate to refresh this list, which has grown considerably. Like last time, this partial list only looks at blogger influence and not twitter, Facebook or soon Google+ influences.
