The Bicycling Forum

The Bicycling Discussion Forum For discussion of all things related to bicycling: Road biking, mountain biking, competitive and leisure, etc. Of course, discuss all topics related to bicycling across America as well. If you have questions about bicycling across America, please be specific in your question. Asking "What route should I take?" or "Have any advice for me?" is too general. Specific questions such as "What's the safest route from San Diego to Phoenix?", "What kind of saddlebags should I carry on my bike?" or "How do I find campgrounds or motels along my route?" might elicit helpful answers. Enjoy everyone!
