So I just saw this article thanks to Barry Childress of Baltimore Spokes it is an article by the managing editor of BikePortland.org Elly Blue about Baltimore's progress toward being a bicycle friendly city. It is an interesting perspective from someone who is from what many think of as the urban cycling nirvana: Portland (cue angelic chorus).
I also wanted to make sure to shout out Jim who lives here in Baltimore, but works for Proteus Bicycles down in College Park. He is organizing a cyclocross race down in College Park, MD at another bike shop that will go unnamed (alright, it's proteus) and it looks to be a real nice event. So for all of you who just haven't gotten all the suffering out of your system this cross season, this race is the equivilant of that one last hit of cocaine/heroin/marijuana/caffine/jenkem or whathave you before shipping off to the Amy Winehouse Memorial treatment center.
I am not going to be able to go, I am going to be sitting here working. But I wish the organizers and participants well and that the event goes off well.
Alright you cats, get out there and ride in this awful slosh.
