New GPS site for bikes and motorcycles.
I found this neat site that alows me to share my rides with other riders it called Ride with GPS. It takes data from my Garmin Forerunner GPS and uploard the data to the site. You can view the route on Google Maps and it is just a neat way to share rides and keep up with rides. You can share the data on Facebook also. Here is an example from one of my urban rides around town. http://ridewithgps.com/trips/159298
Their web site is http://wwww.ridewithgps.com
They have just started the site and it is growing, I hope you will enjoy the site.

Happy New Year! (a day late)
Had to start the New Year off right by riding my bike. While most folks think it's too cold to ride when it is 31 degrees out, I don't mind a ride in the cold weather. We meet up at our local bike shop (Poppa Wheelies) in Russellville and went for a nice urban ride around town. The sun was out and it was rather nice out even though it was a little brisk out. I had to start the new year off with a ride on my new single speed bike from KHS, the Urban Soul. A nice bike for the price, and it was a blast to ride around town. We rode about 18 miles and ended up at the local Starbucks for some hot cocco and a blueberry muffin. A great way to start the year!
