		<title>576 km</title>
		<description><![CDATA[You could easily bike along the Romantic Road and cover less than 500 km, but we got lost a bunch and added a few days of needless biking in circles. When we were done, we got in a paddle boat and biked across the lake.
You can check out the whole set, but here are some [...]]]></description>

Fortunately, I was wearing a helmet.
I think the bat wasn&#8217;t.

		<title>Wesabe: The bank account</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In addition to tracking my cash spending, I also feed Wesabe my bank transactions to get even more detailed spending reports. If your bank lets you download statements in OFX, Microsoft Money, or Quicken format, then you might be able to make use of Wesabe&#8217;s automatic account updating. If Wesabe won&#8217;t automatically update your bank account, or [...]]]></description>

		<title>Critical Polo</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When searching for a good bike ride on the weekend, I surfed my way to Critical Mass, an event that brings hundreds of cyclists together to bike around the major cities once a month. It took almost three hours for the parade of colourful characters to cover around thirty kilometers of Frankfurt.

Lifting our bikes may [...]]]></description>

To start a new cash account, click &#8220;Add an Account&#8221; on the left side of the site, and then find the tiny &#8220;Create a Cash Account&#8221; link [...]]]></description>

		<title>Saved from the jaws of shame</title>
		<description><![CDATA[From the mouth of a fool:
Hell, I even wrote a blog post to create LIMITLESS SHAME if I don’t sign up for a bank account by the end of the month. Now, I don’t have to read those webpages, but I’ll sure feel pretty dumb if I don’t.
Last week I submitted an application for a [...]]]></description>

		<title>With a little help from my friends</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A bike trip can be strengthened or destoyed by your relationship with your friends. You’re all in this together, so when they suffer, you suffer. You’ll never be able to block out their whining for an entire week. That’s why I need to make sure that my friends ride in comfort.
This is why it’s critical [...]]]></description>

		<title>More potential for public humiliation</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A Canadian has promised to pay me a visit in June, and we’re currently smoothing out a plan to bike around Germany. I’ve always wanted to do a proper bike trip, I can safely file this in the Pretty Damn Awesome category. We have our sights on Germany’s Romantic Road, a chain of cities that [...]]]></description>
