February: I decided to make it a lot easier to spotlight authors by compiling my list of books read in smaller chunks, hence the list of books I read in January.
March: I wrote quite a bit more in March. What I read in February, some musings on how differently we would interact on our streets and roads if we all moved the way we do in grocery stores, a round-up of some of my transportation reading (meaning articles, not books), a piece on why someone who owns a bike would use bikeshare, an introduction to my new e-bike Zelda!, and on the last day of the month the list of what I read in March.
April: My blogging energy continued into the cruelest month, sparked by the biking energy that goes with tackling the #30DaysOfBiking challenge. For a while there I thought I might actually do another run of 30 Days of Blogging to go with the biking, so I pushed out a lot of posts:
- Bike Every Day in April — No Foolin’ (#30DaysOfBiking)
- Day 1: Back on the Bike
- Day 2: My Version of a Triathlon
- Day 3: Biking to Breakfast, and Zelda Defies the Wind
- Day 4: E-Bikes Make Friends
- Day 5: Some Days You Just Check the Box. It Still Counts.
- Days 6 & 7: A Little Night Magic
- Day 8: Bikes Are So Handy
- Day 9: A Quick Grocery Jaunt
- Day 10: More Night Magic, with Frogs and Mist
- Day 11: Commitment and Stopping
- Day 12: Finding a Better Way
- Days 13 & 14: Bikes to the Rescue
- Days 15-26: The Twitter Story
- #30DaysOfBiking 2019: The Big Finish
I even dropped in another round-up of transportation articles along the way.
May: Then life returned to normal and my blogging pace dropped. I posted the list of my April reading.
June: Another quiet month with only my list of May books.
July: You guessed it -- June reading list.
August: I should have blogged every single day of my wonderful trip to Copenhagen and London. I didn't. Too busy living the actual life to record it, and that's not an apology.
September: Caught up on the reading list with a July-August round-up, then posted on the innumerable thankless chores of digital housework.
October: Another "too busy to write" month.
November: Two-month list of September-October books read.
December: Something about the end of the year gets me writing again. I had a really wonderful experience with a great version of #BikeSchool, a Twitter chat I lead every so often, this time with guest hosts and the added tags #MoveEquity #WheelsMoveMe to invite in new participants. I belatedly reported on successful completion of the 2019 #coffeeneuring challenge as a series of bike dates with my sweetheart, discussed how my approach to holidays has evolved (and gotten much simpler and easier), and reviewed my year of bike challenge participation. I wrapped it up with a confession about nonfiction books I've started and haven't yet finished to create a bit of public accountability.
And that brings us to 2020. Such a nice, symmetrical number, that. Here's hoping that I round out this new year with enough reading, riding and writing to make me happy. I need high doses of each of these.
