Cyclophilia: April 2008
http://cyclophilia.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
Different spokes for different folks. Saturday, April 26, 2008. CCCP: My new cycling club. Today I went riding with my new cycling club. They are associated with a local bike shop, called. And so the club is called. Club Cycliste Cycle Pop. Or for short, CCCP. As you can see from the club's website. The logo features a wrench and cog, styled in the manner of a hammer and sickle, and the team colours are red and white. Unfortunately there were two accidents in our ride. (My friends assured me that las...

Cyclophilia: Montreal-Quebec, the actual route, more or less
http://cyclophilia.blogspot.com/2009/08/montreal-quebec-actual-route-more-or.html
Different spokes for different folks. Monday, August 10, 2009. Montreal-Quebec, the actual route, more or less. After we got to Granby, James and I decided to change route, bypassing the hills of the Eastern Townships for a flatter and more direct route. Here is the route we took, pretty much. Well, we took bike paths in place but they were very close to these roads. Photos and an account of the. Blood, sweat, and tears. Rain, sweat, and mud will come later. Heres a link to the last 5 on the fifth posts:.

Cyclophilia: July 2009
http://cyclophilia.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Different spokes for different folks. Thursday, July 23, 2009. My next adventure: Montreal-Quebec, not the shortest way. Tomorrow I set off on my next cycling adventure with James F. It will be 4 fun zigzagging days to Quebec City - not the shortest route but hopefully scenic - then some time in Quebec City before returning by bus or train. Here is the plan, even though these kind of vacations often turn out so different from the plan. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). St Josephs Island ON.

Cyclophilia: May 2009
http://cyclophilia.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Different spokes for different folks. Monday, May 25, 2009. I took my bike into the shop to have the chain changed and brakes adjusted, and picked it up today. My bill itemised the work done, and added one more item: "bike plein d'eau", no charge. The suitably-Montreal-bilingual note meant my bike was full of water. The bike-guy told me my bike also had a screw at the bottom one can unscrew to drain the bike. I never knew! Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Montreal, Quebec, Canada.

Cyclophilia: First century-plus ride of 2010
http://cyclophilia.blogspot.com/2010/05/first-century-plus-ride-of-2010.html
Different spokes for different folks. Sunday, May 2, 2010. First century-plus ride of 2010. Yesterday I went on my first long ride of the season. Here is the map, in two parts. If you're curious about the route, you might want to click on the "view larger map" link for each, and zoom and scroll to your heart's content. Switching to the "walking" option will help too. This ride was with the Club vélo randonneurs de Montréal. Done their 400km ride and am not sure if or when I might want to try the 600km ri...

Cyclophilia: September 2008
http://cyclophilia.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
Different spokes for different folks. Tuesday, September 23, 2008. Hiking in the Adirondacks: cross-training? Last Saturday, I went hiking in the Adirondacks - more precisely, near Keene NY, on the Nun-da-ga-o Ridge from Big Crow Mountain to Weston Mountain - in a group of 10. It was beautiful! I found myself asking why it's taken me 15 years of living in Montreal to try hiking in the 'dacks. This is a blog about cycling, so what's the connection to hiking? I want to do more hikes before too long. Mark's...

Cyclophilia: May 2010
http://cyclophilia.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Different spokes for different folks. Sunday, May 16, 2010. Don't the physicists tell us that time is not constant were you to exceed the speed of light? Well, you don't need to go that fast to turn back the clock. You just need to hop on a bike and ride up a mountain! Yesterday, my bikeclub. After we returned to Quebec, the rain started. It wasn't at all nice, but at least it wasn't as intense or as cold as the rain on last year's Jay Peak ride. It always rains for our club's Jay Peak ride. On the outsk...

Cyclophilia: 200km Covey Hil
http://cyclophilia.blogspot.com/2009/09/200km-covey-hil.html
Different spokes for different folks. Tuesday, September 22, 2009. On Saturday I went on a ride with two other cyclists from my club. And two from the Club vélo randonneurs de Montréal. The ride itself is 205km, but I think it's about 8.5km from my house to the starting point (and another 8.5 back home). 222km: that's an even nicer number than 205, don't you think?
