You’d be surprised at how traveling at a slower pace can transform a road trip.
» What it does: It’s a tip and inspiration blog for bicyclists looking for quick or affordable do-it-yourself cycling getaways in the U.S. and Britain.
» What’s hot: Real people sharing real cycling stories — with photos, favorite local bike shops, tips and more. It can be used as a primer for cyclists training for a cross-country adventure or as a resource for veteran cyclists looking for scenic rides they haven’t tried. Personal stories that include lunch stops, campgrounds or B&Bs are invaluable to cycling travelers. View a number of the travelogues before submitting your own so you can get a feel for how many pictures and tips make for the best articles.
» What’s not: It’d be great if they tagged the travelogues for beginning, intermediate or advanced cyclists. But for now it’s fine to search by location and read the personal stories.
