Well, after months and months of endless bike-related web trawling, blog lurking, and forum tickling, I've decided to take the plunge and make my debut contribution to the blogosphere. This first post is just a warm up, while I test out the site features and start developing the design and content.
To get started, here's a short post about why it's mellow yellow velo.
Well first, my bike's not yellow, but mellow yellow velo (while probably trademarked) relates to a mindset, a way of cycling, and a way of interacting with the world. That changes each day, in the same way that it's difficult to make custard the same way over and over again. Sometimes it's a runny custard day, when you're in the mood for a blast through traffic, racing to the lights, cruising past queues of commuters. Other times it's a life is sweet kinda day, just tootling around, watching the birds, enjoying the sites and sounds of surroundings, maybe with somewhere to go, maybe just going nowhere in particular, just out a ride. Hmm. Okay, so I've run out of custard/bike-related comparisons now... so moving swiftly on...
I hope you enjoy the site. I'll try not to be too obsessed with confectionary and focus on the biking. Promise.
