Other random stuff:
- I saw a really cool children's book last night: Mike and the Bike
by Mike Ward with a forward by Lance Armstrong and audio CD of the text of the bike by Mr. Phil Liggett himself. There's even a Mike and the Bike blog.
- The Hybrid Debate Among the debates: Would drive more if our cars had a lower environment impact? Sponsored by Lexus.
- Bicycle Design reports on the bikes in China. He also includes a link to the Crazy Bicycles Design site, where you can vote on what you think of as the weirdest bike design.
- Patrik Sinkewitz banned until July 2008 for his confessed doping.
- I think most of you have seen the news of the "real bike shop" at a Walmart concept store in Highland Village, Texas.
- Because it's that time of year: ICEBIKE, Bike Winter Chicago, Winter cycling forum, Winter Cycling page.
I've been laid up in bed for the past two days with a horrible head cold. I hope the rest of you all have a great weekend!
Get well soon!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Citizen. I'm kind of better today. I plan to go into work tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteGo to work?! What a waste of feeling better. ;-P
ReplyDeleteThanks for the mention Fritz. Glad to hear you are starting to feel better.
ReplyDeleteMy four year old absolutely loves Mike and the Bike. He has a poster vin his room and he listens to the CD that came with the book all the time. I pointed out Phil Liggett at the Tour de Georgia this year and he wasn't particularly excited until I said, "that is the guy who reads Mike and the Bike on your CD". During the TdF, my son referred to Mr. Liggett as the Mike and the Bike guy every time he saw him on TV. I'll have to take the book along for Phil to autograph next year. I am sure that he would be glad to meet one of his younger fans.
