A great bike quote
This came to me from Adventure Cycling Association’s Bike Bits email newsletter:
“All bicycles weigh fifty pounds. A thirty-pound bicycle needs a twenty-pound lock. A forty-pound bicycle needs a ten-pound lock. A fifty-pound bicycle doesn’t need a lock.”

My bike, with all it’s gear attached, weighs between 80 and 90 pounds, depending on how much food and water I’m carrying.
I guess I should have left the lock at home.
Hey Pete… I guess this could be called the Law of Conservation of Bicycle Weight or something… geez, I didn’t realize you’d be blogging constantly throughout the trip… when you get back, we won’t have anything to talk about at coffee!
