Bicycle Page

Last Modified:04/25/03

This page grew out of a page I did for a wonderful bicycle shop I used to work for -- Wheel Easy Bicycles run by Howard Smith. While the page has many far flung links I'll mostly concentrate on bicycle infomation from the Delmarva Peninsula.

Take me straight to the Delaware Listings for Delaware/Delmarva tours and events.

Take me straight to the Recall & Complaint Listings

Take me straight to the local rides

Take me to the  Downstate Delaware Striders and Riders page.

Upcoming rides:

What I think of:
The Cateye CC-HB100 cyclometer
