rollersinstinct: A boy rides his bike past bomb-damaged houses and wrecked cars in a neighbourhood recently liberated by Iraqi security forces in the western part of the city. The Felipe Dana image was published in The Guardian’s 20 Photographs of the Week. Cycling is always a blast but this is just sad.

Remember ‘SPY vs. SPY’? We found this in the spare bedroom after Simon, our eleven year old nephew, visited last week. He has a vivid imagination and is a pretty creative guy. Maybe MAD magazine is looking for young contributors?

Distracted driving caused most deaths in Ontario last year, say OPP
**Please put your mobile devices away** while navigating your 3000-4000 pound vehicle on our streets and roads. At regular speeds, your vehicle is a lethal weapon. My bicycle and I weigh about 205 lbs in total. I will *always* lose in a collision. Thanks for your consideration. Distracted driving caused most deaths in Ontario last…

Targeted advertising I received while reading The Onion. Would I pay higher premiums because of my risky behavior or less because of my fitness? I’m just gonna bank on the fact that the driver who takes me out is heavily insured/sued.

Key Largo to Key West. A bucket list ride for me. A hundred miles with much of it riding over the azure ocean waters. A favourable prevailing wind made me giddy at times; so fun going fast. A memorable sunset and cold pint at Mallory Square with Chris as the day came to a close.…

A ride through town to Tradewinds Park is a quick education on what a car-centric culture exist in Southern Florida. Nice to see bike lanes on some major roads but suicide to actually use. I rode on vacant sidewalks, instead. EVERYBODY drives EVERYWHERE in Broward County, from what I can see. I rode past auto…

ericvanwesenbeeck: One of the most important rules, in my opinion. Too much data slows you down. Ride by feel. Ride hard, to the limit. That’s my M.O. This is so fundamental to my approach to cycling that I am compelled to repost it.

Barrie North Class of ‘85 had a reunion of sorts at the Matt Wilson Memorial Scholarship fundraiser, last night. Thanks Doug and Scottie for your hard work putting this together!

Forty years ago today Rumours was released. It became Fleetwood Mac’s most successful album selling 45 million copies. Much of the creative magic in the music came from the tumultuous relationships in the band during the recording sessions in 1976. You can hear the heartache and new hope so clearly in the music. At eleven…
