BICYCLE TIMES
ISSUE 38

rom the most extreme
mountain bikers to the
most demure com-
muters, we’re all a family of
cyclists. Sometimes we have
different tastes, sometimes
different styles and o en differ-
ent opinions, but we all share
a love for the wind across our
cheeks and the satisfaction of
personal power.
I’ve been fortunate enough
to be welcomed into the family
of cycling with open arms, and
here I’ve found not just a voca-
tion but a personal passion.
I’ve had countless riders stop
to offer me a spare tube, some
extra water or just a tip for a
more scenic route. Somehow
we instinctively know to watch
out for one another, celebrate
with one another and, sadly,
far too o en grieve with one
another. Families are never
homogeneous and certainly
never perfect, but they stick
together through and through.
Usually starting a family
means making major changes
to one's lifestyle, but for world
bicycle traveler Cass Gilbert he saw it as an opportunity for a host
of new experiences. Now before his third birthday his son Sage has
already traveled by bike on excursions near and far. Read what it’s
like touring with young children and learn some tips for your next
adventure starting on page 36.
We celebrated with a family of another sort this fall at the first
Bicycle Times Adventure Fest presented by Trek Bikes. Hundreds
of cyclists of all stripes gathered under the beautiful Central
Pennsylvania foliage to explore new terrain, make new friends and
celebrate life on two wheels. You can relive the fun or read about
what you missed in our story starting on page 44.
Riding with your family can be one of the most rewarding experi-
ences on two wheels. We met the moms, dads and kids of the
Kidical Mass movement and learned how, for some, cycling was a
gateway to creating a family and, for others, how the needs of hav-
ing a family brought them to cycling. Spending time with them we
saw how riding together is not only fun and healthy, it brings them
closer together. But don’t take my word for it, read what they have to
say on page 30.
I’ve made countless friends through cycling and I’m looking
forward to making many more. While our taste in two wheels some-
times differs, I consider you all part of the Bicycle Times family and
I’m honored to be a part of it.
