I have a bike blog! http://bicycle.vox.com/
My avatar is a picture by Jo Perry. More information on this picture and others in the series can be found by clicking here.
Heck, a couple months ago I was damned proud of my ONE mile riding!!![]()
And remember, it's better to not be "perfect" because then you just make everyone else look bad!![]()
Another thing to consider is that if you are out of shape and only riding tiny distances, seeing you biking can be a huge inspiration to other women who are out of shape as well- they will see you pedalling along and hopefully realize biking is something they actually CAN do. Be an inspiration to others!!!

I love this image from Lowell Herrero. It captures the audaciousness and unabashed joy that a woman--of any size--can feel on her bike.

I am a newbie here, and love the posts! I am 5'7''. creeping up on 50, and trying to stay under 250. I started riding again recently and am up to 23 miles this week. I figure if someone doesn't like the view, go around me! Keep up the great work!![]()
It's all about the journey (my reason for riding slower)
Good for YOU, Shubie!!![]()

Sounds like you're doing the right thing to keep it down, and take it further down! Way to go!Originally Posted by ShubieGA
