Weekly Roundup April 23

I have to admit I’ve really been all about riding again and, in turn, I’ve been equally into writing a blog. It kind of goes hand in hand, when you ride you have things to write about, when you don’t ride you feel like life sucks and POOF nothing to write about. With that friends; The Weekly Roundup!

Bike Munkey: This is a newer blog for my list, but I really enjoy reading it. This week Munkey shares the embarrassment of his ‘cyclist shuffle’ with us in Oh Bugger. All of us have been there, all of us have done it, if you say you haven’t? Well, you’re lying! That point where you try to/thought you’ve unclipped from your pedal, but to your amazement you’re NOT unclipped at all, and what results is pure chaos… Pure chaos that makes for a hilarious read.

Harp Rider: Harp gives us one that really speaks on what this time of year is about. Sunday Riding is a great little story (and accompanying video) of one of his Sunday training rides. It’s on everyone’s mind, and everyone is getting out and getting more serious about their riding, perfect example Harp.

Cozy Beehive: Ray takes us around the world this week in an insanely cool post: Japanese Automated Bicycle Parking System. As most might know, Japan has a huge amount of bicycles traveling their roadways, this makes parking them a bear, but they’ve go it all figured out. Their solution is sick, you have to check this one out.

Miles And Madness: Throwing a little love to Judi for bagging on her and her triathlete affliction, er, hobby. In this particular post she writes about something I want, in time, to try, and that… Track Racing. I just think it would be something ridiculously cool to try and something I could add to my list of things that I’ve done in my lifetime.

Fat Cyclist: Fatty is realizing, now, that the big races for his year are just around the corner. Desperate Measures is this realization, and what he is going to do to make sure he’s ready. Best of luck to you, Fatty, let me know how the laxatives go.

Well, that’s all she wrote for now. Enjoy the beautiful spring weather, get out there an ride already! And, as usual, I’m the Phun Cyclist, you stay classy Cleveland.

Yea track racing is fun. I hear they may be building a wooden track in Cleveland. If that's the case, we'll be up there!

Yeah, Cleveland is slated for an (I believe) indoor velo. It would be pretty bitchin'. You could find out more at:
