My Bicycle and I

Hello
I thought I would use this platform to announce the launch of my new blog: http://www.My-Bicycle-and-I.co.uk
By way of introduction I am a magazine writer and sometime photographer who loves bicycles and cycling. Since I seldom have the opportunity to write about either of those things in the magazines I usually work for, I decided to put together this eclectic (and growing daily!) collection of stories, essays, musings and columns; sort of a magazine-style blog.
Check it out.
I hope you'll find some things in it you like.

I figured the bicycle was first for literary effect?
You know, it's more about the bike than the bloke?0 -

It should be My bicycle and me or My bicycle and I depending on the context....
My bicycle and I are going to the coast on Saturday
Let me tell you about my bicycle and me
As it's a blog, I suggest the latter would be more accurate. Although, you could go totally off-piste with 'My bicycle and myself' which is wrong on every level.0 -

Depends on your intended message. The film "Withnail and I" contains large dollops of irony, you see, and the title gives you a flavour of it. "Me and Withnail" wouldn't quite have done the trick.
And what about a film called "Me and the king"?0 -

Speaking as a Northerner, I am leaning towards "Me bike and me"0 -
does that mean you've only got one bike ?0

Ok, so everyone agrees the title of the blog is wrong.
Has anybody bothered to look inside yet?
Out of interest, is there anyone on here who doesn't write some kind of blog about cycling?0 -
I was about ti say I didn't until I realised that I did for a short while during training for a multiday ride0

I liked it. That Enigma is sweet.0

It means I ride only one at a time.0 -

I don't have a blog, and I can't be bothered to read them either. Generally they're self-indulgent and poorly-written.
Self-indulgent and poorly written text should reside in a forum.0 -
Sorry you feel that way Giant Mike. Mine may be self-indulgent - that's for others to decide - but I'll guarantee it won't be poorly written.

Just had a read, though I feel we fall into opposing camps (Oh how I do love carbon) it is very well written and an entertaining read0 -
