>I came across this short video at the site of Virgin Vacation’s 11 most bike friendly cities (click here). It is a video of the world’s only bicycle lift (elevator) located in Trondheim, Norway. It is ingenious, and probably one of the most bicycle friendly inventions I’ve seen yet. Make sure you pause it towardsContinue reading “>Now This Is Bicycle Friendly”

While I do not eat a great deal of meat I am far from a vegetarian…but sometimes I just crave vegetables…yesterday was one of those times. I made this delicious vegetable stew with enough leftover to eat a second day and freeze some as well. It is so simple to make…basically like a chunky soupContinue reading “Sometimes Only Vegetables Will Do”

Things That Can Be Carried (or pulled) On A Bike (#111)
A covered trailer.$46.12 in groceries.A gym bag full of wet clothes. I took my old Trek (AKA, the mule) out for a spin today with my BikeRev trailer…getting ready for the snowy season. During the summer months (or should I say non-snowy months) I’ve been riding the Yuba and Dahon as my everyday bikes, butContinue reading “Things That Can Be Carried (or pulled) On A Bike (#111)”

Now This Is Really Cool…
This image was found here. I want one…and I wonder why we don’t see these anywhere. Yes I am fully aware there are Velomobiles available, but they all look like they are some sort of a pedaled spaceship…none that I’ve come across on the www are as stylish as this. The best part, I think,Continue reading “Now This Is Really Cool…”

Dance For The Climate
Firstly, let me qualify this post by stating straight out that I am not a dancer…but I love this short clip! I’ve watched it a few times (it’s under two minutes long) and find it extremely inspiring…but more importantly, empowering. I originally came across it at Copenhagen Bicycle Chic, but there’s an entire website thatContinue reading “Dance For The Climate”

Macaroni and Tomato Sauce with Peas and Turkey
This is incredibly easy to make…you can have it ready by the time the pasta boils (well…almost). And it’s as delicious as it looks.

A Dangerous Annoyance
Firstly, a couple things: the woman in the above picture is not the person that I speak of in the following text…I don’t know who it is, it just resembles what I saw. I found the image here. Also, when I post these thoughts the last thing I want to do is imply that IContinue reading “A Dangerous Annoyance”

Lan Yin "Eiko" Tsai: an inspiration
This is an inspiring story. For the past 26 years Lan Yin “Eiko” Tsai has been biking 150 miles to benefit MS research…and she does it on an old single speed while wearing heels and a dress. With all my rants and raves about the usefulness and importance of a bicycle, and by discourses onContinue reading “Lan Yin "Eiko" Tsai: an inspiration”
