This week I registered to participate in 30 Days of Biking, a month-long event masterminded by some lively Twin Cities folks who want people to love their bikes and tell them (and the world) all about them.

From the website:

The only rule for 30 Days of Biking is that you bike every day for 30 days—around the block, 20 miles to work, whatever suits you—then share your adventures online. We believe biking enriches life, builds community, and preserves the Earth.

Pretty rad. I think I can manage this April to pull that off. Blue Bianchi Friend is sitting on the back porch, spiffed up with a clean gearset and freshly oiled chain, ready to rock it like the bad-ass old lady she is. And until I can get my hands on a faster racing bike, she's what I've got and she's going to get me there.

My main biking adventures are to work- 2.5 miles one way- and around the lakes, parkways, and greenways of Minneapolis. This Saturday, the 2nd, is supposed to be nice, nice enough- and I have the day completely off.

That means you, local riders, should join Kate and I for Brunch and Bikes...details to be announced. It'll be exactly what it sounds like.

Let's go riding!
