Welcome to The Biking Hub
The Biking Hub is a cycling site run by cycling enthusiasts. Everyone involved in the project loves riding their bikes, even though we live in different locations and ride distinctively different types of bikes. Ashwin is a cross country racer from Virginia, Greg and Denise are freeriders from my neck of the woods, and Dan is a bike freak from Ontario. There are a couple of others who we’d like to bring on board but we’re saving them for later. Me? I live in southwest British Columbia and ride pretty much everything, although I really enjoy flying through fast, technical singletrack.
We’re going to be updating the site regularly, so you’ll see fresh new content four or five times per week. That’s in addition to the regular posts we make about gear reviews on other sites, interesting discussions on this-or-that weblog or forum, and the type of bike-related sites we really enjoy.
This first week, I’m presenting ‘how-to’ article that highlights key parts of this site so you can get the most out of your time here. Also, the other contributors will post their introductions and there will be some fresh content available for reading. And barring any catastrophic solar flares, next week you’ll see new stuff from everybody.
Finally, we want our readers, whether they’re 35-year-old noobs or industry insiders, to add to this site too. You can do this by using the comment feature you can access at the bottom of each article (click on the title of an entry to access the commenting interface). For us, it’s all about keeping folks stoked on cycling and making it easier to find the type of information they’re looking for. Read the rest of this entry »
