Just joined Instagram (my, why have I been) and must say, I'm enjoying it.

Much better setup than other forms of social media from my initial views!

So, who is good to follow? Added a few from here but open to suggestions :-bd

I've started following some of you, which is apparently a perfectly acceptable thing to say in this day and age.

I'm the_north.wind. The occasional bike shot, but mainly random photography. I also totally miss the point and tend to share photos months after they're taken, leading to people saying "oh, I thought you were on holiday" on a regular basis.

Some bike people/things I follow, in no particular order:
uninspiredramblings
retro_mtb
grafton
tracy_moseley
bothybikes
backcountry.scot
cyclingonthecontinent
paragonmachine
bikepackermag
...
Wow, there's loads. I'm not copying them all here, you can find them on my following page if you're really interested!

I'm on there as me. I don't post much on it, mostly using Flickr. I do use it for occasional, instant stuff and use the pass-thru posting to Facebook and Twitter.

I've also only just discovered the joy of Instagram. Signed up ages ago, never used it, then a few weeks back my friend said I'd probably like it a lot. She was right, really like the simplicity of it. Very little politics/hassle/tussles which are available in large measure elsewhere (twitter/FB/forums etc). Adore looking through everyone's photos, and often they seem to be on the simple things in life that make people smile.

On there as l1ttlegirlbunny :)

I love instagram .. currently spending train time starting off with #nepaliloveyou and seeing where that leads - another plane ticket for next year at this rate.

@pinnaclebikes for our recent Nepal trip pics / #legendsofnepal and @torinonicerally for, well, that.

@danielweststeyn's page / bike tour is a good one to follow.
..also @renan_ozturk

Cragrat73 is me. Post bikes (pedal and motor), children, rugby and travel photos, also random poor show.
I quite enjoy seeing the pictures and less so words, as they say a picture says a thousand words.

Thanks everyone, already had a few from this parish on there.

Feels much less 'stalkerish' than Facebook and I can look at pretty pictures and avoid politics :lol:

I'm singlespeedsimon, so keep your eyes open :shock:
