Hortobagyi Husos Palacsinta (meaty Hungarian pancakes)

Hungarians are a proud people and nothing seems to excite their dignity more than food. Meeting peter, a Hungarian restaurateur at his part time home The White Swan in Golders Green, I began to understand why. For Hungarians food is...

How to secure your shed or garage and keep your bike safe!

This post was inspired by a fellow cyclist that had his bike in a standard shed not locked to a thing not even the garden rack, ?Stolen? £2000.00 worth of bike gone, by spending less than £50.00 to secure his bike a bit better he would of most properly still have his bike. I don?t know where you keep your bike but a lot of people keep their bike or indeed bikes in a shed or garage, unless you have these on your home alarm system, if you have a home alarm system that is, your bike could be easy pickings for any bike thief.

*Here are a few things you could do to slow down the average bike thief.*

RadioShack Owns The Podium in West Flanders

Recently Team RadioShack completed a sporting feat that went a bit unheralded outside of the relatively tight community that forms the cycling world and it?s rabid fans.  From 4-6 March TRS literally dominated the competition during the 65th running of the Driedaagse van Est-Vlaanderen in Belgium, that?s ?Three Days of West Flanders? for you non-Flemish [...]

Bicycle Lingering

We always talk about bicycle travel. But what about bicycle lingering?

Bicycle lingering is that ability to stop forward motion, pause, and soak up what is around you.

Cafes. Ice cream parlors. Roadside restaurants. City parks. Riverside picnic tables. They all call out for you to park your bike and linger.

I am amazed at how many bike travelers hop on their bikes for a day's ride and rarely stop. Sure, they might stop to fix a flat or to take off a jacket, or to pause to look at their map. But "lingering" isn't in their vocabulary. They zoom to their next destination and check into a hotel or campsite.

What's the hurry? As far as I know there is no podium to stand on at the end of a day of bike travel.

Unlike a bicycle race, I believe it is more likely for the participant who arrives last at the end of a day's ride, to have reaped the most rewards.

Learn the art of lingering and you will be a better traveler for it.

Tour de France, Stage 2- How Do They Do That?

55,645 Kilometers Per Hour! That?s 34.6 miles an hour. That?s the AVERAGE speed of Garmin-Cervélo in the short 23-kilometer (14.3 mile) Team Time Trial contested on the streets of Les Essarts, France on Sunday. Team RadioShack, just 10 seconds back, were close to that speed as well. Given the perfect [...]
