This afternoon, I realized that some of my readers may like to know more about me and what I'm doing so I created a link on my blog to my profile on MySpace.com. Additionally, I was corresponding with Colin McDonald, a new writer at the Beaumont Enterprise as well as Michael Tittinger (a writer for the Santa Monica Daily Press).
Colin recently completed a cross country bike tour from Albany, New York to Beaumont, Texas, writing a series of blog entries along the way. Colin's route intrigued me because it appears that I will be riding in some of the same places that he did.
I wrote Michael Tittinger with the hope that he could provide help with the best trails to ride in Los Angeles. Although Michael doesn't claim to be a cycling expert for the L.A. area, he has interviewed Santa Monica Mayor Bob Holbrook about the dearth of safe cycling trails there and also reported on a new bike trail being developed on the right of way of a former light rail line that ran within the city.
By the way, if you're ever in L.A., visit Venice & Santa Monica's beaches whether or not you have a bike. Both are connected by a bike/pedestrian trail about 8 miles long with scenery and people wathching that is a must see.
