Want to do some of these rides with me? No problem. Contact Palm Beach Bike Tours
and we'll get you hooked up. No matter what your riding style, we can find a group for you.
Friendly or fast. Supported or unsupported. Downtown bicycle bar crawl (gotta drink those
carbs) or Everglades nature ride (BYOGranola). Your choice. Our leadership.
Local information is always free.

I ride a customish Trek 7300 that recently became a Trek 7700 thanks to a broken frame.
Trek was very nice (thought a little slow; almost a month instead of the two weeks they
estimated) about replacing the defective, five-year-old fame and even upgrading it in
the process. One and a half thumbs up for customer service.

My favoriate organized ride is the Tour of Rural Southern Vistas, sponsored by
the Capital City Cyclists. I'm signed-up for the metric (100 km on Saturday and then
another 100 km on Sunday). I highly recommend the ride if you get the chance. They
also have a century route if you want 100 miles.

If you want to feel really bad about how little you are riding your bicycle, get a copy
of Adventure Cycling. I'd love to be able to put as many miles on my bike as they do.
