I found:

Velotopia from my old home town of Seattle Washington. Their editor and chief, David Cole had a great quote: "Bicycling is the source and cure of all of my problems." (I wish it were that simple)

Here's what it says about their site: "About Us

We like bikes. We firmly believe that anything with two wheels and pedals will lead you down the road to happiness. This website is about that road.

There's quite a few different bike subcultures out there: from brakeless fixie kids pedaling in skin-tight denim to hairless racer dudes drafting in skin-tight lycra and we tend to like them all. We like organized rides with bountiful food stops and numbers pinned to our jerseys just about as much as we like to get surly and take over the streets on the last Friday of the month. We like pump tracks, dirt parks, Sunday rides, midnight races, velodromes, single track, watching the tour, touring the countryside, climbing hills, Thursday crits, truing our wheels, anything to do with bikes we like. And that's what this website is about: Bikes!"

The BBC's "One PLanet" did an interesting 30 minute radio report on cycling there. The blog has a link to download the program.
