The Real World of A Bicycle Tourist

Following is a link to a blog written by an acquaintance from a bicycle touring group of which I am a member.  Most of my riding is what is often referred to as S48 and is often is credit card touring.  Still, a lot of what she has to say even applies to lazy two or three day tourists like myself.  For instance, the more time you spend on a bike, the less you think of cycling specific gear.

I have a few friends that actually live on the road.  I hope to have one perform here one day soon.  Her and her dog travel all over on her recumbent bike and give classical violin concerts. Most are literally homeless by choice.  If you find this interesting, please let me know.  I’d like to feature several of their blogs as they are quite fascinating with photo.’s that will take your breath away.
