Welcome,
fellow wheelmen,
to my little corner of the web!

"The Bicycle Site For
The Common Bicyclist!"
This site has helped
bicyclists since
11/98.
Who is "The Common Bicyclist"? When it came to designing my own cycling website, I decided it should not be directed at only one side of the sport, but instead be open to all riders. An on-line magazine of cycling in general, with information every one can use. Not just the Lance Armstrong wanna-be's. There's space within these pages with knowledge that every cyclist can use, and it will be explained in a way that, I hope, everyone will be able to understand.
But in order to work, this has to be your magazine as well as mine. I don't even propose to know everything. For this to be the well rounded site I intend it to be, I need input from others cyclists as well, especially those in the areas of our sport that I am not. So please, feel
free to contribute your knowledge, your ideas and tips. Both they and you are quite welcome in my, in our little "corner" of the web.
It has come to my attention that Yahoo! has decided to terminate all GeoCities web hosting services sometime this summer. When I created this site over a decade ago, it was my hope that reader contributions would keep it active. Unfortunately, I have received very little input in that time, and none at all in the past few years. Since it is clear that this site is failing in it's purpose, I have decided to let it die along with the rest of GeoCities. Please feel free to copy any of the written information I have placed on these pages which you may find useful.
It has been fun.

I'd like to give special thanks to Doctor Draac and all the netizens
at
who so generously offered their help!!

Please, write me and ask before copying and/or use for anything other than that of a private, personal nature (screen savers, "wallpaper" for your computer's desktop, framing and hanging on your wall, stuff like that.)
I think you'll find me quite generous. Thank you.
