Safety and Cycling Shoes

[Meg McKilty]

One should take reasonable precautions, but I can't live by 'what ifs.'

Here, here!

If you get attacked, think about what you would do so you know. Being a medical professional, one MUST take action; there are no spare seconds.

Think the same way when something may happen: you've got shoes with hard cleats sticking out of the bottom of them and carbon soles, you've got a hard helmet, you have a bike if you can manage to get behind it and swing it around (one can always buy a new bike).

Last but not least, all good boxers know you always have your fists. Don't give up the good fight. I refuse to live in fear of people and things.

I don't wear high heels.

I don't wear road shoes.


If I can't run across a street in it, I ain't wearing it.

(am I the only one who remembers the piles of women's high heeled shoes ditched during Sept 11th and during the continent-wide black out a couple years later? There's a reason...)
