August bored.

August bored. Are you bored?  Something about the word bored just makes me cringe.  I don?t believe in boredom.  If you are bored, then you must have very little for an imagination.  You must not be capable of entertaining yourself, or expanding beyond your boundaries. I am considering signing up for cooking lessons, dance classes, hike the entire Pacific Crest Trail, and go to Disneyland. That being said, I am bored.  Racing is winding down, far too soon in my opinion, but that is women?s cycling for you.  Even though...

Tour de France?Without Lance

I LIKE YOUR BIKE.

Are you ever walking around town and see a bicycle that you just love? Whether it's the killer components or the perfect paint job, we've all seen a stranger's bike that we dig.

Recently, on Instagram, we've been talking about some friendly bike tags. This isn't something new to us, but we thought maybe we could contribute to the spreading of good-feelings.


We printed off a slew of these little notes and put them on our favorite bikes around downtown Missoula.




(Sidenote: Try to get the paper secured well so that they don't turn from sweet notes to instant litter.)

Thanks to my friends and fellow Adventure Cycling employees, Rich and Ted, for helping out with the solid bikes of choice.

Here are the links to download and print the notes yourself if you would like to brighten a cyclist's day:

"I LIKE YOUR BIKE" Notes in Color. (PDF)

"I LIKE YOUR BIKE" Notes in Black & White.  (PDF)

And if you're in the Missoula area, stop by the office and grab a few from up front.

(One last thing! If you do print these off and use them, we'd love to see the sweet whips on Twitter and Instagram under the tag #ilikeyourbike)
