http://scooterskirtcyclist.blogspot.com/2009/12/charlie-strunk-fairfaxs-bike-guy.html
Wednesday, December 2, 2009. Charlie Strunk - Fairfax's Bike Guy. Charlie is serious about biking.

(Thanks to Bikes@Vienna blog for this photo.). A bike locker is like a small square self-storage space; the bikes are completely contained in the lockers so there's no exposure to the natural elements (inclement weathe...

Scooter Skirt Cyclist: September 2009
http://scooterskirtcyclist.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 30, 2009. This is not my beautiful car" (so I'm trading it in for a bike). Are the media excited about cycling or David Byrne's authorial skills? Whatever the answer, biking has grabbed some headlines recently, thanks in part to the man who famously asked, "Why the big suit? In his new book, Bicycle Diaries. And Geoff Nicholson of The New York Times. Did, and published reviews in their Sunday editions. When Being Hip Requires a Living Will. On Monday, the Post. That's right - no gear...

Scooter Skirt Cyclist: Re-Cycle
http://scooterskirtcyclist.blogspot.com/2009/11/re-cycle.html
Monday, November 30, 2009. This is the time of year when the generosity of ordinary people is in the spotlight. The requests of food pantries and homeless shelters replace the news about the Redskins offensive line and take their rightful place on page one, above the fold. Most charities, however, operate not just during the holiday season but all year long. The "Local Living" section in the Thanksgiving edition of The Washington Post. Ran a story about a quiet charity. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Scooter Skirt Cyclist: News Cycle 2
http://scooterskirtcyclist.blogspot.com/2009/11/news-cycle-2.html
Sunday, November 15, 2009. The bike news I've shared in some of my recent posts has either been comical (the Fendi bike) or disappointing (the sorry state of Velib, Paris' bike-sharing program). So it is with a big virtual smile on my face that today I bring you glad tidings about local events (and one that's not-so-local) that involve bicycles. Bikes for the Poor. In early October, my church, St. Mary of Sorrows in Fairfax, Virginia, hosted a Bikes for the World. Vienna Bike Shop Wins Award. The bike la...

Scooter Skirt Cyclist: Physics, My Fickle Friend
http://scooterskirtcyclist.blogspot.com/2009/11/physics-my-fickle-friend.html
Tuesday, November 17, 2009. Physics, My Fickle Friend. Attention conspiracy theorists: Do you know what shape-shifting, cunning force has the power to make or break the human race? Could be. Karl Rove, the round-faced face of the Bush #2 admininstration? Well, maybe. But even automatons are only as intelligent as the people who program them. My brother was exasperated. "I said. Angle the snorfler against the nuttle so the fibster doesn't seize up on the leeward side.". Did I mention I was in a Sunfish?

Scooter Skirt Cyclist: Green Day
http://scooterskirtcyclist.blogspot.com/2009/11/green-day.html
Monday, November 9, 2009. No, I don't mean. As I had written in an earlier post, I had hoped to get panniers for my birthday and my family obliged. Panniers are heavy-duty tote bags that attach to either side of a rear bike rack. This is what an empty pannier looks like on my bike. It folds up into a compact shape. The pannier expands in every direction, and can hold a surprising amount of stuff. A loaded pannier looks like this. I know what you're thinking: "Can my bike ever look that cool? Was shaped l...

Scooter Skirt Cyclist: To Have and Have Not
http://scooterskirtcyclist.blogspot.com/2009/11/waste-land.html
Wednesday, November 4, 2009. To Have and Have Not. La ville est plus belle a velo. The city is more beautiful by bike. That's the motto of. The bicycle-sharing program that began in Paris one day after Bastille Day in 2007. Loosely translated,. Because they're for public use,. Bikes are of sturdy construction and the parts that are usually exposed, like the chain, are well-protected. Because the bikes are for Parisians, they must be aesthetically pleasing with clean curvy lines and just a dash of. Sort o...
