Foo - First mention of bikeforums.net in media (at least that I have seen)

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.

Seems to me someone else posted an article a year or so ago, too. Around Katrina's gas price gouging.

"It just seems (women) aren't as excited about the fact that I don't own a car, and don't want to own a car, as I am," Becker wrote on Bikeforums.net, asking other bikers for advice.

I cut off cars, pregnant women, kids, and the elderly every day when I bike to work, and when they give me crap about it, I say, post on bikeforums about it, where I might actually give a d**n.

Ahh I'm just kidding. :p

I really thought is was a troll or a scam or something when I got the PM from the AP columnist. Everything checked-out, so I did the interview. Since he said he was interviewing 10 or more people for the piece, I never expected to be in it, let along in the first paragraph.
