Re: Bicyclists!

I hooked an odometer/speedometer/computer thingy to my bike. Seems like all my parking lot and neighborhood riding adds up to 6 miles!

I think I over did it today though....might need to rest tomorrow....(ouch)

Re: Bicyclists!

Just scanned the thread.

This advice an braking and handling should be carefully noted

Braking and Turning Your Bicycle

http://sheldonbrown.com/brakturn.html

Good braking and turning technique can save your life!

To anyone living in the United Kingdom I would recommend an offical publication called "Cyclecraft"

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/0117020516/202-4487359-6156611?v=glance&n=266239

But it would not be much used in the USA.

Maybe there is a similar guide.

This site is full of useful advice - not all country specific.

WhyCycle? - The impartial cycling advice site

http://www.whycycle.co.uk/index.shtml

And this is a good read
