If you're interested in bicycle touring, you may be interested in the sport of randonneuring.

For those cyclists in the Bay Area that wish to partake:

We have a bunch of 200km rides, but for the crazies, we have a 400km ride coming up on the 28th of this month and a 600km on the 9th of May.


For my last cycle tour in Europe, OpenStreetMap was godsend.

I can't wait for my next cycle tour there. I'm hoping that AirBnb provide me lots of affordable accommodation choices where I previously had to cycle long streches.
