12.5 miles each way - 25 per day for me
Add 12.5 miles each way for me!
I love my timbuk 2 large laptop messenger bag. It distributes the weight very nicely. I can adjust the strap on the fly without taking the bag off, I can get into and out of it easily and it holds my...
Isn't that a great feeling?
My middle son who raced for a team and in college dragged me kicking and screaming onto a bike, that year hubster and baby son also got a bike with a tag-along. Then my...
Well if you want to go by sheer numbers about 40,000 people die in cars, 700 on bikes per year.
I'll take my chances. I actually feel SAFER on my bike!
I second that - check www.bikeleague.org for courses and instructors in your area! It appears there may be, sometimes they just need someone to round up a group and they will teach a course. I HIGHLY...

I LOVE that light - it is the one I use on the back of the GoBug - a little plumbers tape took care of installation
one trick I have used to install lights at least temporarily - stick em in a...
We went out and tested the night vision stuff -
Conclusions -
* Most headlights are either way too bright or far too dim (Blind a motorist or make yourself barely visible)

Rock ON! :cool:

I wonder if it could be mounted elsewhere on the bike besides the bottom tube?
There is no way to be too visible. We are planning to shoot some high-qual video of the various things people use when riding at night to see if we can really show what's most effective.
I think...
I made our invites using a rubber stamp centered on a square flat card in brown/coppery colored ink. Over the top of this went a square piece of vellum - sized slightly smaller than the embossed...
When I first saw that video, I too was surprised by how invisible most of them were. I think most of us probably are less visible than we think we are, no matter how good a job we do of lighting up....
Oh absolutely the more the better! Just don't expect an LED vest to be the only thing you need to be visible is all :) I don't care about looking like a geek - I have a pair of short tri bars on my...
I have heard of people on tandems going that fast downhill, My son hits 52 to 54 mph going down some hills in Austin - I am sure it would be entirely doable if the conditions were right.

Don't count on anything above the waist in terms of reflective material - the headlights just don't hit it up there. All the reflective stuff should be below the waist - on the pants, shoes, frame,...

Oh How I *SO* love THAT!
The wind will blow it at you when you spray it if you are standing downwind from what you are trying to spray.
Yeah I get to work and go "WOW! What a beautiful morning! What a great ride!" I NEVER say that when I drive my car!
