TGIF All! How was everyone's week? Mine has been pretty good. Its been real busy with summer outings and family stuff, so I apologize for being so lax on reporting in from the field.
The Dublin (Ohio) Irish Festival is this weekend and I am stoked about it. The City of Dublin puts on just an amazing program. They are trying to green it up this year by encouraging people to bike to it and providing a bike valet. They're promoting the (re)use of plastic tumblers for the adult beverages and providing several recycling points throughout the festival.
A couple of websites that I'd like to point out to you if you have a spare moment to surf. I came across gasfreecommute on cnn this week and have been tracking my work commute mileage there. I've also pledged mileage on Trek's 1 World 2 Wheels website.
The other place that I wanted to shoot over your bow was Restaurantica. Nice little eatery review site. I will be adding some reviews their over time.
I have been loving the bike commuting to work. I feel so good. I have been able to increase my stamina and muscle strength considerably. What used to wipe me out is turning into common place now. I am glad that work is nine miles away.
I can't believe the number of people on bikes that I see commuting on a dialy basis. This is very encouraging. I have about 300 miles down so far. I need to get a cycling computer that tracks all that stuff. If anyone has a suggestion for a moderately inexpensive puter, drop me a line. The government should leave the gas prices at $4.00/gal and create a fund for public transporation initiatives. Or reduce deficit, but I digress.
