    Thanks for this link Java
    I will post it in my local clubs message board


    Courage does not always roar. Sometimes, it is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying,
    "I will try again tomorrow".

    and thank you crazybiker for "thanking" the kind drivers. I was nodding my head and agreeing with everything she wrote having been there, done that but I was very impressed that she took the time to thank the drivers out there that Are aware of us, and do respect our rights and do treat us with kindness without stupidity ie: stopping to let me go even tho I don't have right of way and by stopping a potentially more dangerous situation has just now occurred. My friend and I kid each other about us being "urban commando cyclists" but you really Do have to be that hyper-aware to commute very day on busy streets. Good article.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming: "Yeah Baby! What a Ride!"
