On wooden bicycles and peak oil

I've written a post on Off the Beaten Path in Technology which may be of interest to those of you into cycling, New Urbanism, or peak oil.  It's called Wooden bicycles and peak oil.

The idea came to me when I saw a slide show of a wooden bicycle on Inhabitat.  The photos caused me to think about alternative transportation, then peak oil.  Then I end it with an interesting question.

I hope y'all enjoy it.

New URL for Off the Beaten Path in Technology

I've changed the URL (web address) of Off the Beaten Path in Technology.  It's now being hosted at http://otbeatenpath.wordpress.com.   As usual, I'll be covering a wide range of topics, including Linux and other free software, programming languages, internet political and regulatory issues, etc.  But one particular focus I have at the moment is the technology of energy (both oil and alternative energy).
