I woke at a state natural area near Loveland, CO. It was an okay camp, a sleeping mat on a concrete pad next to a picnic table. I felt a little more secure than at the last site because there were no restrictions posted. I was discrete and slept well. I've mentioned before that it takes a lot...

The ride from Arcadia to Calhoun was pristine. It followed the White Lightning route which is all backroads north of interstate twenty. There was very little traffic and the landscape is forested hills with no towns. I stopped about halfway at a large United Methodist church where I made a...

I woke up with two songs in my head. One was Bob Marley singing, "I'm a rainbow too" and the other Peter Tosh singing, "I'm an original man". It was in the form of a round and also call and response. In the morning, come a the rainbow - original man In the evening, come a the rainbow - original...

So I started riding from Miami to Orlando and I took sometime off but now I'm back on the road .... I packed all my tattoo stuff and I'm about to start riding my tall bike from Orlando to Savannah if anyone has a place to crash or if you have some hand me down bike parts or if you have any...

I've been on tour for going on 3 yrs now. Only just found StP a few months ago. I dig it. Resources, personalities, and opinions abound. I am a very solitary creature by nature but have recently been giving thought as to what it may be like to cycle tour with a cat? I had a cat when I was a...

Finally decided to type this up from the writing I did during that very short, but overall successful experience traveling for the first time. First Day: Started okay. About 10 minutes into my journey, I was walking up a very long hill. Someone with a pickup truck stopped and offered me a ride...

Howdy everybody. I have felt visceral disgust at the white shit that surrounds me and everything up here in the woods of Upstate New York - the locals call it "snow". Even just going out for a smoke becomes a military operation. My desert boots have soaked to the core, and I start to think: I am...

So this summer I cycled from Passau in Germany, some town near the Austrian border and next to the Danube river, to Greece and in the process went through Austria, Slovakia, Hungary, Serbia, Macedonia, Greece, Albania, Montenegro, Bosnia and Croatia. This is a bit how it went. I already had...

I'm just curious as to what kind of bikes you are all riding around. Even if you're not touring let's see some bikes! Here's mine, a Miyata 5 speed road bike. It works awesome for deliveries. Love the front and back racks. Was thinking of getting panniers but I don't really need them.

How the humble bicycle is making a comeback in US cities As part of a series on the State of America, the BBC is profiling small businesses that have stories to tell about the way they work, and which say something about a wider national trend. Towards the end of the 19th Century America was...

I am planning to challenge myself and go to Washington from Florida. I was wondering if anyone got any tips for a long ass bike ride? Along with food, shelter, and money. I am all ears.

So my friend and I are debating hitting the road with motorized bikes (mountain ones). Does anyone have a lot of experience with this? I imagine we'd be recommended to get tubeless tires as soon as possible and think about getting a trailer (I use a roughly 60 pound pack), but more information...

My name is Mandalin I am 20 years old. I am currently travelling by bicycle around the country with my flute, hula hoop, jewels and art. I have been travelling for a couple years now and am trying hard everyday to spread my roots. I have wwoofed in Portugal and found myself extremely interested...

Out of curiosity, anyone else gotten a nice road bike before and instead of hitching or hopping just biked to wherever they are goin? If so any words of advice etc?

http://www.grassroutescaravan.org/ thought some of you bike kids out there might be interested in this. I should be meeting them in Minneapolis (i think) and biking from there to Chi-town.

:) Anybody got tips on biking North on the Appalachian trail? We'll be starting in V.A. and heading north to Maine..What kind of bike would you recommend using? How much time should we set aside? The entire summer maybe? Any other tips on supplies, food, etc? Thanks my people!!

So me and my 2 friends left about 15 days ago from Massachusetts to start riding our bikes down the east coast to Florida. Right now were in Rock-ville Maryland and will soon be in Richmond VA in a day or 2. Were going to be hanging out in Richmond for a couple days and was wondering if anyone...

This coming summer around Aug 1st me and my friend plan on biking from Mass down to Florida. We are leave from our town of Ware MA, and ending up in Florida, probably going to Nola after. I was wondering if anyone has biked down the east coast and knew of any good routes or websites to find...

hola hobos, So im finally leaving the european lands and heading to the americas. Im sailing across and will arrive in miami early january. ill be in the states 6 months. After cycling across europe (twice) i've decided i want to cycle across the states... so from florida to california...

How do you kids get away with biking around the states? I have no idea where to start and stop. I'd like to whore out the Appalachian trail for a bit and get off and keep on going. But how could I find exactly WHERE to bike. say from Penn. to SD? Bah. thanks everyone. -Dillinger

http://www.adventurecycling.org/routes/maps.cfm this looks like it'd be great for some adventures. anyone done it? i'd have to get a lot more fit to do this... or just do it and get more fit in the process, but that seems painful.

So I decided to do this whole trip fixed gear, which is a lot slower than touring with gears. I now realize that some of my time goals for this trip are unrealistic, but I have a very liberal time frame so I'm not that concerned about it. Anyways, Matt and I landed in Amsterdam about a...
