Drumroll please...and let the haiku begin, starting with mine:
The Trek of my dreams
takes me places on two wheels--
a land of freedom
~by Jackie Dishner (@bikelady on Twitter)
Joyful May weather!
Birds and flowers celebrate
Cyclists enjoy spring.
~by Richard Masoner (@cyclelicious on Twitter)
Cool breeze on my face
Wind chimes calming melodies
crickets sing along
~by Martha A. Boyd (@twittyboyd on Twitter)
Bike tires deflated
Bike tires deflated
The frame gathers cobwebs, dust
TLC a must!
~by Jennifer Derryberry Man (@mamahhhjenni on Twitter)
You can find more of these #haiku on Twitter at #baiku. The photo above, by the way, was taken by me in Portland, Me., last summer at Brad's, a bike rental shop on Peak's Island, after I returned my rental. And for another look inside the world of #baiku, here's a screen shot of one, sent to me by @bikerly. Thanks, Jim!

Hey Jackie,
I'm so glad I don't have to write my comment as a haiku. :)

Bike in the rafters
Begs me to jump on and ride
As I sit and write

Michelle, love that one. Those bikes are big teases, you know.
Thanks all for visiting. Get out and ride if you can. It's a nice day, and biking is a good way to meditate.
Ooh, I love the twitter baikus! Thanks for introducing them.
The wheels spinning fast.
I climb hills I never dreamed
I could climb before.
Yes you are, Barb. Yes you are! ;-)
