Ride a bike, share your experience and love. When I go biking, I repeat a mantra of the day's sensations: bright sun, blue sky, warm breeze, blue jay's call, ice melting and so on. This helps me transcend the traffic, ignore the clamorings of work, leave all the mind theaters behind and focus on nature instead. I still must abide by the rules of the road, of biking, of gravity. But I am mentally far away from civilization. The world is breaking someone else's heart. ~Diane Ackerman

Bicycle Friends Book Club - 1984

Friday, Peter and I were talking about starting a Bicycle Friends Book Club. The idea is simple, we choose a book, read or listen to it on CD and talk about it during our weekend rides. I kinda like the idea, because I enjoy reading and riding! We decided upon George Orwell's , "1984". Anyone interested in this concept is welcome to join. Just send me a quick, I'm in email to bicyclefriends@gmail.com.

"1984" should make an interesting read, as its about a dystopian society and the presents of big brother in their everyday lives. I look forward to reading it and comparing it to our society today. According to Wikipedia, the terms, "Big Brother, Double Talk and Newspeak," came from this book.
