The first person that invents a cold weather bike will make a fortune. I envision a bike with a compartment that is heated as you pedal. It will need skis on...
How about this http://www.bhpc.org.uk/photos/GB%20Misc/EA_CCombe_01.jpg I see that as CCombe is included in the file name I can presume that that this photo...
I recently read in Mens Health or Mens Journal (or one of those type of mags) about some alternate vehicles coming to the US. One of them was a 3 wheeled...

Hi from collarbone chick...ha ha...my friend John rode a trike on GOBA a few years ago. They aren't good for hills but GOBA isn't a race anyway, and he said it...
Hi Gang, I am new to GOBA; I am planning to ride it in 2008. This will be my first ride of this type - biking and camping - and I'm looking forward to it. I...
Hey there Tom, I've done 11 GOBAs...my advice is to pack everything in plastic garbage bags as if it will get soaked. You never know when bad weather will show...

OK...here's Newbie question #2: What's the terrain like? I understand there's some hills...that's not a problem. I'm more interested in the path. Paved?...
Hi Tom, I've done GOBA eleven times, all on a road bike. The only time we've needed to leave the pavement was in an occasional parking lot or short ...
Road bike - all the way. All surfaces are expected to be paved. The only unpaved areas you will go with your bike is from the street to your tent. And there...
Tom, I have also done 11 GOBAs and agree that you should take the road bike. Yes, you'll see mountain bikes on GOBA, but the knobby tires tend to add more...
I would like everyone to know that I wish I was out of my office for the past 15 years and that I never have to go back. Unforunately, it will probably be...

Hey Gang, my rider number is 170. I think that is the lowest one I have ever gotten. I think I will be in good condition when spring gets here. Every morning I...
