Resources

Everytime I find an article that strikes my fancy and I think would be worth sharing it goes in here. And if we find links to places that we think we'd visit more than once we store it here also.

I've added a listing of the sort of bikes we own and ride. There have been several bikes which have come and gone from our stable for various reasons. But always the constant is that we own and love recumbent bicycles more than any other type.

Lastly, I've added a special page that gets at the heart of how I view the importance of cycling. This is in the form of a tribute to a young girl who decided to ride her bike cross-country alone!

Hers is the spirit I believe we all must share. Most of us are not as capable as Greg LeMond or Lance Armstrong. We muddle along at speeds far below 30 mph. Yet we are winners in our own right, as is Sarabaeth.
