This summer on a trip to New Orleans, I took this pic of my Gary Fisher on Fulton Street. The French Quarter is a great place to ride!

I love everyone’s photos. Heres one of me on Acadia’s carriage roads. They are great for Summer rides. I didn’t need the Pug’s fat tires here but its my favorite bike to ride and the only one I brought on this trip. And of course the photo is my own work… thanks to the camera self timer.

For me one of the best parts of summer are the bike camping trips (inspired by the Rivendell/Petersen S24O concept). I love loading up and setting off for a weekend destination, often exploring new places and revisiting favorite places.

This photo was taken on Whidbey Island along a dike. I was riding with the group but saw a little perch I could stop and stand on taking in the riders and the scenery. This particular trip was a 4th annual event and we had almost 50 riders meet in Seattle with their gear and ride 40 miles to South Whidbey State Park.

This is me riding around at Bayfront Park in Menlo Park. In the photo I’m riding a 2010 Breezer Thunder mountain bike, though I’ve also done these trails with a road bike and a fixed gear bike. I love your photo contests!
