Just having a little summer fun, I love to read about peoples favorite bike rides and why they are your favorite. All of us here have a love for bikes and love our rides. Some are memorable, some are outstanding and a few are epic, I'd like to hear about yours. You can join a fun summer contest by posting your favorite ride, here:

Is everybody shy? There must be some outstanding rides out there, we all have them, those rides we think about just before we fall asleep or the ones we dream of wistfully in the winter? I love to hear about peoples favorites rides.

Working on it...thanks for the reminder as it had already fallen off my radar. :)
Actually, I'm not sure of my favorite ride ever, but I certainly know my favorite ride at the moment. I've already written this up here (http://www.kirksvilledailyexpress.com/community/blogs/bicycling_and_walking_around_kirksville/x1632374137/The-BAK-End).

What a great ride! I've always wanted to try a tandem but have never had the chance to ride one. Now I'm going to have to follow that whole BAK ride on your blog. Thanks for sharing!

It's hard to pick a favorite, they're all good. I'll be looking forward to it, you have an entertaining way of writing.

I just find it confusing to leave a comment on your blog...Blogger has these requirements which annoys the heck out of me.

I'm sorry it doesn't work for you but it's the only blog I have and when I started it some time ago I did not know of any other blogs sites.

I love your user name, Bike Writer. That's so what I am! When I had to take a hiatus from "riding" a year ago, I started "writing" and have confused many people when I say one or the other. I have to often specify if I'm saying riDing or wriTing. ;)

By the way, I posted a story, but you probably already know that. :D

Loved your tandem post! Great photos too. I know what you mean about telling people I am a bike wri-ter, as well as a bike rider. It came about from having met fellow bike enthusiasts at a writers group at our local library. Now we do bike writing rides where we discuss our writing. Often bike rides will end with a writing prompt challenge and we've had organized bike rides/book signings with a local author who published a book about riding all the back roads in the county. We meet up, take a ride and return to a local coffe shop or pub and do a writers discussion and book talk.
