In the event that you haven't come across it yet, there's an interesting and
quirky little quarterly paper called
The Practical Pedal, which as you may have guessed is about practical bicycling (
Click here for their website). There's another paper devoted to urban cycling called
Momentum (which is a little larger and has more content, click here for their
website). I've often thought how great it would be to have print editions of either of these magazines in Western New York (the closest place I've been able to get Momentum is Toronto, and The Practical Pedal is nowhere near this area). At any rate I emailed both magazines (separately) suggesting they send me some and I would deliver and distribute them for free (by bike, of course). I've emailed back and forth with an editor from Momentum a few times...seems I need a
commitment from the local community before they can send them (i.e.
advertisement). Then I emailed Wiley over at The Practical Pedal...he emailed me back the next day saying, "sure, sounds great." He had a bundle (100 copies, I believe) sent via ground
freight....that's them sitting on the
Yuba. (If you're reading this Wiley you can see that the
Yuba can handle many more bundles than one.) I'm planning on dropping them around town this weekend. My plan is to take them to places in
Allentown and the
Elmwood Village. If you're a
Buffalonian reading this and have a specific drop off suggestion let me know.
