A new series of posts discussing cyclists' rights to the road and the issues with facilities such as bike lanes and trails is coming in a few weeks. These will be based on almost forty years of abuse and neglect while simply responsibly operating a vehicle where one is legally entitled to do so. Being pulled over by a DC Police Officer a few weeks ago and told to get off the road and onto a nearby trail finally pushed me to discuss these issues.
In the meantime, visit my nephew Scott's blog and read his excellent series on a bicycling sub-culture, cyclocross racing.
Being provided a copy of my Grandfather Miller's World War One diary has lead to the consumption of large amount of time searching the web, reading books and studying maps. After hurriedly putting together the annotated Google map for Veterans' day, my intention was to do the same for the rest of his diary. But my cousin Tom advised that with only a 24Kbps dial-up Internet connection available in his rural area, he couldn't access the blog or the map. So I've been putting together maps and other material that can be burned to a CD and mailed to him. An on-line version with Grandpa's complete diary will be posted here over the next few days.
