DBF and I follow this local cycling blog pretty faithfully, and I thought this post was terribly cute and of general enough interest to share:

Basically, the blogger chauffered his wife on his Surly Big Dummy for a night on the town for their wedding anniversary. He also briefly discusses / shows how cycling helped him lose well over 100 pounds.

"...sometimes it takes a ride like this to remind you the most important thing about riding bikes. It is a joy."

Hear, hear!

I just wish they were wearing helmets. :o

wow... what an inspiration, happy anniversary to them both. He's lost pretty much a whole person in weight.

So sweet! I do love what he says about riding - I love the sensations received when I cycle. Thanks for sharing!
