283 miles later
Biketober was great. My team, Trusting the Journey, came in 2nd in our pool, and more importantly, we had fun. Plus, 283 miles later, I feel a renewed connection to my fellow bike riders close to home and around the world. Personally, I came in 108th in metro Atlanta and around 23rd out of women…
Two weeks in
Two weeks in to Biketober for the Georgia Commute Options’ Atlanta Bike Challenge and I’ve taken 20 bike trips, ridden 151 miles, saved 91 pounds of CO2, and burned 5,587 calories. Plus, I’ve ridden with half our team, Trusting the Journey — including yesterday with a Facebook friend named Bill, pictured, and another team member…
Pomegranates
My friend Amie and I found pomegranates while Traveling at the Speed of Bike today. She is here from Costa Rica for months at a time taking care of her ill mother-in-law, car-free in suburbia. She tries to get out on a bike ride almost every day, which is particularly awesome not only because it…
Free class for everyone

Viv (pictured on the right) came, and she brought a co-worker named Megan. Viv has been commuting to the Centers for Disease Control (where I just rode last week)…

Join our team, Trusting the Journey! The team gets points every time you ride for just 10 minutes (however slowly…
You can still join
We’re more than halfway through #Biketober and the #NationalBikeChallenge and it has been really fun. I’ve ridden with new people and in new places, and sometimes just around the block (can you say pouring rain?) or for a quick five miles on bikeshare after a doctor visit (pictured). I’m hoping to win that trip to…
