Bike 101: Buying a bike in Baltimore

"Whether for environmental reasons or for health reasons, a bike is a good investment to make. But where you start when it comes to buying the right bike? Luckily, there are many resources in Baltimore to help."

The Examiner has a couple of articles (so far) on some of our many (and growing) bike shops. If you are looking to buy a bike, it's worth a read.

Like most people I live a hectic life and who has the time for much exercise? Thanks to xtracycle now I do. By using my bike for daily activities I can get things done and get an hour plus work out in 15 minutes extra of my time, not a bad deal and beats taking the extra time going to the gym. In case you are still having trouble being motivated; the National Center of Disease Control says that inactivity is the #2 killer in the United States just behind smoking. ( http://www.cdc.gov/nccdphp/bb_nutrition/ ) Get out there and start living life! I can carry home a full shopping cart of groceries, car pool two kids or just get lost in the great outdoors camping for a week. Well I got go, another outing this weekend.
