Great day for a ride

Took a ride today up to Clearwater to have lunch with my Mom. Took the Klein and the camera and had a great day. Temp was in the 70s and had the wind at my back on the way back to the shop. Its been a while since ive had the time to take a ride like this.. ironically sometimes life gets in the way of living.

Bike Bash 3

lots of cool things have been happening lately though I have been too busy to want to report them.. this past sunday everyone at Bicycle Outfitters packed everything for a vendor tent onto our bicycles and we rode from the shop in Seminole all the way down to Vinoy Park in St. Pete for the third anual Bike Bash by the Bay. SWFBUD (South West Florida Bicycle United Dealers), of which we are a part, under the direction of Alan Snel, hosts this event as a day of celebration for the most efficient envention ever. It was a beautiful day and the event was a lot of fun. here are some pictures I stole from the SWFBUD site and from Alan Snel.

The times they are a'changin

This is one of two bike racks at school.. both are full to capacity.. and there are several bikes locked up in various other places around campus. When I attended classes here a couple years ago I was one of two or three who regularly rode. This is a sign of a bad economy I suppose.. but great for the cycling world.

As Mr. Dylan once said...
