Wishing everyone a peaceful weekend and happier weeks ahead.

Happy holidays!

If you have any breaks from the hustle and bustle this week, I recommend a read of this lovely book, The Velocipede: its History, Varieties and Practice , by J.T. Goddard.

Written in 1869, The Velocipede offers an informative look back at the bicycles and bike culture of the time. It even includes a chapter of comprehensive instructions for the beginning rider, and another that focuses on the possibilities of cycling for ladies, i.e., velocipedestriennes.

Those who like bicycles and have any interest in their history will enjoy Goddard’s book. Also, what do you have to lose? The book is absolutely FREE from Google Play. I love how accessible publications like this have become.

All the best to you this season, dear readers. I hope you are surrounded by peace, love, friendship, bicycles, and good coffee.

There he is.  See him? 
Just down the road.
There.

Yes.  Yes!  I see him.
Pedal hard. We will catch him.
Let’s do it!

Pedal pedal pedal.
I think we’re gaining.
Yes, gaining!  Pedal faster!

Almost. There.
Wait. That’s not him.
No?
No!

Oh, that’s a mailbox. Ha ha!
It was fun trying to chase him down, though.
Got my heart rate up.
Even if he did turn out to be
a mailbox.
