…there are many like it but this one is mine.  Without me, my bike is useless.  Without my bike, I am useless.

On a side note, it never fails to cause me to flinch whenever I am riding in downtown Minneapolis and I glance over at a car, truck or SUV and see that it contains just a single individual.  Regardless of what size the vehicle it almost always has just the one person in it.  Yes,  I know that some of these people have just dropped off a child or spouse or maybe they are handicap in some way but I also have to believe that a vast majority of drivers are just hardwired to drive.

Anywho, I don’t have the time to go off on a rant so let me just say this, have a nice day.

Week 2 of 30 Days of Biking is off to a strong start despite the wind and drop in temperature.  This morning I arrived at work downtown with numb feet from the brisk winds along the Hiawatha Bike Trail but overall nothing beats commuting by bike.  As long as my trusty bike holds up I will be riding all week long and beyond.

The Moai Team has been putting in some serious miles all week long in celebration of 30 Days of Biking.  I am proud to be a user of the Nice Ride MN system and they have helped get me to and from work all week long.  Go ride a bike and keep a look out for a Moai!

The past couple of weeks has seen me breaking a sweat while trying to drum up some new bike themed art.  After many false starts it looks like my effort will pay off with three new posters.  A sneak peak is below.
