Name Dropping & Gratuitous Links

"What gets the equivalent of 1,000 miles per gallon, doesn't pollute, will save the world, and transports you in breezy style? Your bike."

-- Mark Jenkins, columnist for Outside Magazine, and author of Off the Map: Bicycling Across Siberia, To Timbuktu: A Journey Down the Niger, and The Hard Way.

Howard & The Mrs. went to high school with Mr. Jenkins and his brother. The Mrs. also had a naturalist book of her own published. But I don't dare link to it and blow my cover.
