The Cycling Dude: Tour de Bicycling Blogs
The Cycling Dude: Announces Innaugural Tour de Bicycling Blogs:
"Participation is open to all BikeBloggers, regardless of whether they are Industry Insiders, Journalists, Activists, or ordinary cyclists like me.Regardless of whether you are a Racer, Roadie, Tourer, MTBer, low to the road in a Recumbent, or into it for recreational, or commuting, reasons.
The point of this is to let your fellow cyclists know of you, and let the wider Bloggerverse, and the many people who are in it who enjoy Bicycling know of us, and our stories, and resources.
If I get enough responses from bicyclists in the rest of the Blogosphere, but who are not Bikebloggers, then I'll have a section devoted to their contributions as well."
I am happy to report that I have been included in this month's Tour de Bicycling Blogs, Blog Carnival.
The host of this carnival is The Cycling Dude. Check his blog out if you get a chance. He has some great cycling related posts, and his collection of links offers some fantastic reading material while your wheels are collecting dust.

The Snomobike
This bike wouldn't have done a bit of good here on Cape Cod so far this winter, but it does look like an interesting ride. Just when you thought you have seen it all...

January Rides are Rare
Today was perfect for that early January ride. I cycled to Waquoit Bay, made a brief stop for some photographs, and returned home again. It was a short trek, but what a fantastic day!

Progress in Inches
My plans for my vacation this week were to relax, enjoy life a little, and avoid driving anywhere at all cost. So far, the no driving part has worked out. Unfortunately, the head cold that attacked on the first of my vacation has limited my mobility and enjoyment so far.
Yesterday was my first attempt at getting out, and I limited myself to cycling to a local (two miles away) used bookstore. The chest felt tight and congested, I was chilled despite the 80 degree temperatures, and the nose began running furiously upon my return. All in all, I was just satisfied that I was able to get out into the smoggy air and sunshine. I was also grateful to have some new books.
Today, I am going to attempt a ride into town... perhaps shoot some photographs and do some exploring. Tomorrow, motorized transport will be necessary to get us into Boston. Jesse and I will be taking the commuter rail in to see the sights and visit some museums. Don't forget the Kleenex...
