    I just stumbled onto this post - it's a small thing, but it's very encouraging.
    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.

    Bad Juju,

    We have this poster on our wall here at TE! I think it's inspirational. EVERY woman looks beautiful on a bike.

    Well I am sure trying!

    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)

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