General Cycling Discussion - Bike Websites. . . Where do you surf?

Bikeforums.net is a forum about nothing but bikes. Our community can help you find information about hard-to-find and localized information like bicycle tours, specialties like where in your area to have your recumbent bike serviced, or what are the best bicycle tires and seats for the activities you use your bike for.

Every morning before I start working I have to have my internet fix. It goes something like this. . .

BF - General
VeloNews
BF - Mountain Biking
ProCycling
BF - Road
eBay Cycling
BF - Racing

Have any other cycling sites I can check out every morning?

What are your favorites?

There are a few that I regularly visit out of the 30 or so I have in my favorites list. I like these in particular:

http://www.roadbikerider.com/
http://www.bicyclingmagazine.com/
http://bicycling.about.com

Of course I spend the greatest amount of time and visit most frequently in this forum.

Hmmmn.... Oldroads.com sorta got me started on bike sites after I stopped the silliness of visiting political discussion sites.

RoadBikeReview.com has 2 boards I like. Their relatively new retro board doesn't get alot of traffic but has a steady group and alot of bikes have been built up lately. Their GZeneral board is susceptible to flame wars but often has interesting threads.

Of course this is the only site that I wear a jersey for. :D

Here... cyclingnews.com, velonews.com...

I also hang out at RoadBikeReview.com's cyclocross forum, and my club has its own forum... Haven't been visiting much of anything lately. I've just been too busy.
