This forum’s roots date back to the very first bike email list in Austin, starting in 1994, and it played a part in the getting the segregated bike lanes you see all over town.  Be a part of history and make a post!

Hi, my name's Steve,

I've been a bike messenger/delivery guy for virtually all of the past 16 years and have been car-free during the vast majority of all of these years.

On New Year's Day, I'll be starting out on a pretty involved bike tour, something I've always meant to do.  I call it Bike Tour de Life.

I'll be rolling out from here in Austin, from which I roll about 5000 miles all over Texas & Louisiana through April 30.  The tour seeks to promote & raise funds for Livestrong.  15% of gross revenues that the tour receives go to Livestrong.

If anyone would like to participate in any way with the tour, please feel free to contact anytime.  The tour website is: 

biketourdelife.org


Many thanks for reading, Happy Holidays in the meantime.
