No matter how great the conference is -- and this one does not disappoint -- all the sitting and eating over three days can be rather tiring. A bike ride with pleasant companions was just the ticket. I was entranced by the rural nature of so much of our ride. The rolling prairies, scrub trees, and waving grasses were just right to restore balance to this cartographer and prepare me for the return trip home.Top photo: Glen, Hans and Jenn on Capital City State Trail.

I'm happy to announce that I have recently been entrusted with overseeing and organizing Bike Overnights, IMHO one of the most promising new programs we've launched at Adventure Cycling in years.As you can read at my Bike Overnights profile, over the years I've worn quite a few hats for Adventure Cycling, nee Bikecentennial. This is a new one I'm really excited about putting on, because I think Bike Overnights has the potential to introduce hundreds, thousands of neophytes to the joys of bicycle travel.If someone tries out an overnight, he or she might be on the road to a future cross-country ride. Or not ? there's nothing wrong with sticking to the shorter rides. We just want to see people out there doing it!Take a look at the Categories column on the right-hand side of the Bike Overnights home page. You'll see that so far, fewer than half of the states in the U.S. are represented. We need rides in Iowa, Wyoming, Hawaii, New Jersey, and so many other states. And I'd love to publish a story about someone doing a winter-camping bike overnight. A tale about a weekend ride to a high-school reunion. We're also looking for gear gurus, camp-cooking connoisseurs, and travel-tip trippers.You get the picture. Be creative, and join in the fun. You don't need to be a professional writer or photographer. Just a Bike Overnighter with a desire to share the inspiration.Source: http://blog.adventurecycling.org/2011/11/donning-bike-overnight-hat.html
