For many of us, the days are getting shorter and cooler, and thoughts are turning to things other than bicycle touring. Why not make this the year to try something different and go on an off-season bike trip? Yes, the days will be shorter and the weather will be tougher. The flip side is […]
TERRY TEAM: Meet Sheilah Chisholm.
Sheilah began cycling early in the spinning-craze years, and is a spin instructor when she’s not out on the road. She loves the camaraderie as well as the health benefits of cycling. This photo was taken two weeks ago when a group of friends wanted to do a “century” just for the fun of it! […]
RED WHEELS, GREEN APPLES & PERFECT PIE RECIPE.
Last week I ventured out on a fall ride to my favorite apple orchard; Thanksgiving pies must be planned! Temps were in the high 50’s and a little cloudy with warmer weather and sunshine expected in the afternoon, a perfect combination for my Terry Grand Prix Wool Cycling Jersey, cozy new Breakaway Knickers and the […]

BIKEPACKING: TINY ADVENTURE; BIG FUN.
A Micro-Adventure Awaits. The first time I heard the word “bikepacking”, a light went off in my head – I knew this was going to be my activity of choice for my Surly Pugsley (named Wednesday). The activity is defined very much as it sounds, a combination of biking and backpacking, an off-road tour, […]
FALL FAVORITES.
It’s that glorious time of year again when the days get cooler and beverages get warmer. Whether or not the lack of light is your cup of tea, we can hopefully agree on one thing – fall fashion is great. With sweaters and boots, thermal tops and fully reflective jackets this is shaping up to be […]
LET’S GET COMFORTABLE.
My Journey to Saddle Comfort. I can vividly remember my very first rides in 1999. I had signed up to train and ride 100 miles in Lake Tahoe, and my saddle pain seemed insurmountable. Finally, I looked at my coach and said, “I can’t do this, the pain is too intense.” He looked back at me […]

Bicycle travel is about discovering great places at […]
La Course: Second Annual Pro Women’s Race on the Champs-Élysées.
Best of – La Course by Le Tour de France 2015 by tourdefrance I hate to say it but, as the TDF Peloton came into Paris this year it was a bit anti-climactic; the GC champion had been named and Sagan had the green jersey in the bag. That being said, La Course existed in complete contrast – it was […]

SISTER SESSION.
“Girls gotta start somewhere.” This film is important – for girls, women, men, boys, BMX, cycling, the world – this is important. Breaking through the BMX barrier, this 11 minute film (part of the Bicycle Film Festival) is an absolute inspiration. As I watched these women flip through the air and go full speed toward […]
HEADING FOR THE HILLS.
I have always preferred the certainty of road riding to mountain- relatively well paved roads, intuitive turns with an occasional pothole or cow pie as the only obstacles to a meditative ride. However, with insane winds getting in the way of a couple of long bike days I decided to dust off Wednesday, my beloved […]
