Very cool idea from our friend Tim Jackson

Here's how it works;
I post my list of bike blogs that I like and read and then you cut and paste the list onto your blog and add the sites that you like and read. Then anybody who reads the list does the same and a great viral meme is born, creating lots of exposure to the blogs on the lists and giving people a new set of blogs to read that they might not have known anything about. It's a great way to build and foster community among our peer group of cycling bloggers... and it's also a lot of fun and brings people together for a big virtual hug.

Without further delay, here is Tim's B-list, in no particular order at all...

Wow, I am honored to be on your list! Thanks... :)

I feel pretty special to be on your list twice... thanks buddy!

Thank you for posting this and giving it more legs. This is such a cool thing. I watched it really mushroom in the marketing blog world, so I hope we can all push it further in our bike blog world. Seriously, this is all about introducing people to some great reads. (I think you have done such a great job here, but I don't know if many people outside of your market know about it. This way more people know. That's a good thing.)

I am enjoying finding bike blogs that I was not familiar with, like yours, through this list. It appears that Tim had another good idea.

I cycled all around Fort Worth in the early 90s. Good to find this blog (via Tim Jackson's blog).
