I am a little late on this, since we are already into the 9th day of the new year, but I needed a new wall calendar at home and I usually generate my own each year.<\/p>\n
For 2011 <\/strong>I have generated a Bike Trails and Events Calendar<\/strong>, in PDF and Excel formats that I am offering on this site for free. I just finished the web page with the Excel and PDF Bike Calendar Links.<\/p>\n See \u00a0Bike Trail and Events Calendar<\/a> for a PDF or Excel copy of the calendar. Both versions of the calendar include 1 page per month. The calendar includes the standard US holidays for each month and\u00a0a Bike Trail photo on top (or you can choose the pre-made generic calendar with no bike trail photo).<\/p>\n Since I am so late on this, I have only included 1 Chicago bike trail event (so far) which is the Bike The Drive event. I will probably add events to this calendar through out the year so if you know of events that would fit this format, please send the event and date to me.<\/p>\n In addition to the pre-made calendars (with bike trail photos (Illinois and Wisconsin)) and the generic calendar (no photos), I am also offering the Calendar Generator program <\/strong>which is an\u00a0Excel VBA program that allows you to generate a calendar (with or without photos) for any\u00a0year that you select, with standard US holidays and customized\u00a0events that you can enter yourself.<\/p>\n The PDF version<\/strong> is probably the easiest version. The Excel (no macro) version<\/strong> is a little more complicated but allows more customization (you can replace the photos with your own) and the Excel VBA Calendar Generator<\/strong> version is the most complex but allows the most flexibility.<\/p>\n I don’t want to make it sound like any of these are that complex or difficult to use but there are quite a few people out there with many levels of PC expertise. I’ve tried to keep options available from very simple to more complex and powerful.<\/p>\n Well, if you are in need of a 2011 calendar, I hope that some of you find the calendars and programs offered here to be helpful.<\/p>\n Now we can at least have some bike trail photos on the calendar to remind us of riding season all year long even when we can’t be out there on the trails! Have fun!<\/p>\n Once again the link for the calendar programs is: Bike Trail and Events Calendar<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I am a little late on this, since we are already into the 9th day of the new year, but I needed a new wall calendar at home and I usually generate my own each year.
