  1. Howdy MB,

    I clicked on a random Technorati link and found myself on this post :)

    Thanks for the nod.

    Saw you have quite a few entries in the ‘cycling’ section, and thought you might enjoy this link that’s been sitting in my bookmarks, waiting to be written about:

    Cycling the World

    This information source is amazing for people looking to do some bold cycling in exotic locations

    Cheers

    And good luck on the compendium – it’s a lot of work into a good idea. I hope it pays off.
