It was a gorgeous day for a ride with friends today. Mix of roads and gravel, Colorado lakes & canyons, 65F, no wind, sharing crazy stories with my friends. Priceless.

On the subject of anti-social networks: I organize a free, fun, social bike ride in my home town. Today, I posted two things on NextDoor.com to get the word out with my neighbors: 1 - an event announcing our next ride, and 2 - a post doing the same thing (because I fear not everyone reviews the event list.

I came back a while later, and someone has posted a negative comment, basically blaming cyclists for all the ills of the world ans also reported my posts as Spam, which immediately took them offline. I have to assume one person did both things.

Thanks very little to the neighbor who did this. Instead of messaging me, you made me waste time posting things nobody will see now. 😡 ND.com offers an appeals process but we'll see how that works next...

Sharing two pics from my local social cycling group's ride last Sunday. It was a bit chilly out still but much fun, riding around and hanging out with friends. Love my group so much. 🚲 ♥️

I'm sharing a few pics from my local social cycling group here in CO. We rode 8 miles on Sunday, with smoothies and donuts before. The sun was out, so I worked on my tan. hahaha 😊

Woohoo! Made sdtickers for my little local social #cycling group. Just need the weather to warm up a bit more and we'll start riding again. 😊

Blog post: How to start a social cycling group

As I wrote recently, I started a social cycling group for people in my locale who like to ride, but go slow and enjoy the company of others before, during and after the ride. If this idea appeals to you too, but you don’t have a group like this in your area, then this post is for you! I hope to share some tips here about how you can start your own social cycling group and have a lot of fun while doing it. I am no expert, I’ve only been a part of one group and I started my own group, but I learned a lot in the process and want to share that info with you all....

Blog post: Why I started a social cycling group

In 2025, I started a casual cycling group called Highlands Ranch Social Cycle, for people who like to ride slowly, socialize, and relax outdoors on bikes. We ride around my home town and we stop whenever we want, visiting coffee shops and farmer’s markets and so on. As the new year starts now, I want to take a minute here to remind myself why I started this group. [...]
