We won Cranklisted's Favorite Commuter/Travel Biking Blog for 2010! Thank you so much to everyone who voted for us! To see the winners in all of the categories, check out this post by Darryl, the friendly guy behind Loving the Bike and Cranklisted.
In the spirit of promoting cycling blogs, here are our some of our friends and favorites:
Travelling Two: Bicycle Touring Inspiration » http://www.travellingtwo.com
It would be hard to find someone more dedicated to the touring community than Friedel Grant. She and her partner Andrew have created one of, if not the most, informative touring websites on the internet.
Newlyweds Cycle the World » http://www.erck.org
We've read Sarah and Jamie's story at least three times through. Their down-to-earth journal helped convince Tara that she really could do this before we left. We're good friends now too, staying in contact via email and our journal regularly. We can't wait to meet you guys!
Ride Earth » http://tom.ride-earth.org.uk
We just found Tom's website, and think his photos and journals are brilliant. He is currently cycling in Mongolia, so we are watching his progress carefully.
Bikeloc » http://www.bikeloc.org
The story of two guys cycling across the US this summer, capturing stories of the local food movement through potlucks. What a great idea; we wish we could go eat with them!
Besides these blogs, there are also plenty of great stories from couples we've communicated with who are either in the planning stages of their trip, or in their first few months of travel. So here's to Manjula & Max, Emma & Justin, Liz & Patrick, Freddie & Guy, Kirby and Rebecca and Sarah & Lachlan! Way to make your dreams a reality!
