This section is designed to be a very brief introduction to some of the aspects involved in touring by bicycle. The information is based on my personal experiences only. People who are serious about touring should visit a library where informative books can be found. A very extensive discussion of these topics and much more can be found at John Dorsey's website. On the two FAQ pages. If you are taking a self-sustained camping tour (no vehicle support), you will need everything a backpacker uses and more.

Cross country skiing is probably my biggest passion. And this from someone who spent all of his life living in a place (New York City and NJ) where snow is a nussiance rather than something you can enjoy! And made famous by the many thousand crazies attending the original Woodstock Festival. I enjoy skiing from fast track work outs. Now living in Western New York State (Rochester, NY) I am the webmaster for the Rochester Nordic Ski Club (www.rochesternordic.org). Our two favorite local places to ski for ...

DC Bike Commuter: And with luck there will still be some for my kids to inherit

Tips, tales and commentary from a daily, year-round bicycle commuter in Washington, D.C. Saturday, August 17, 2013. And with luck there will still be some for my kids to inherit. Phil Wood grease, purchased from Ann Arbor Cyclery in about 1978. I don't rebuild many hubs or headsets nowadays, so I don't pull this out of the tool bag very often and there's a good chance it will last me the rest of my life. Surprising when you think about it.

DC Bike Commuter: June 2013
http://dc-bike-commuter.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
Tips, tales and commentary from a daily, year-round bicycle commuter in Washington, D.C. Sunday, June 9, 2013. I was pleasantly surprised to see that Moscow - which seems like a pretty treacherous city for cyclists - has a bike rental system. This sign translates roughly to, "Map of parking locations", "Bike rental network of Moscow". The rack was well stocked -. But prospective customers might find the twisted metal to be a little off-putting -. Labels: Cars and traffic. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
