My homage to EcoVelo

A while back, EcoVelo posted a neat roundup of tips to make the bike-or-car decision easier in the months when a heated car is pretty tempting.

As good as the tips were, I was struck by the fact that EcoVelo and I seemed to be sharing a common dog!  The photo illustrating his "ready, set, go" technique of keeping a bike at the ready showed a pooch that was almost indistinguishable from our Bessie -- at least from the back.

So here, in a holiday tribute to one of my favorite biking blogs, is the Bessie (and Laddie) version of ready, set, go.
