Capillary Action

COW Blog Entry #3:  If you are reading here, you have to be asking yourself what do these two pictures have to do with cycling?  If your'e thinking they would better belong in a "how to do a seventh grade science project blog", I would agree...but let me explain!

When I was a kid (in 1962-ish), we would often watch the afternoon TV showing of Art Linkletter’s House Party.  You know…it’s the show where “Kids Say the Darndest Things”.  If you have no clue what I am talking about, you might want to check out this utube link: Art and his Kids!  (you might want to check it out even if you do know what I am talking about…it was well worth the 7:14 time investment to reminisce). 

Holy COW!

Holy COW!!!  Cager On Wheels (COW) has started this blog to share personal connections to cycling.  Cager On Wheels might be a strange blog name but lets just say that strange, odd, and peculiar are adjectives that I fancy.  Be sure to check back to learn of the evolution of this blogname, tidbits, and hopefully other useless facts. 

In reality, COW might be a misleading blog acronym since it does connote the female gender of cattle and that’s no bull.  In terms of collective cycling experiences, I am very much a newbie or what might consider a baby.  So for cattle call purposes, a reference to CALF might be a better genderless reference.  Before any experienced cyclist (older cattle) seeks to make me a veal cutlet, my actual adult bike riding experiences only got rolling last March (2010).
