Now that my commute consists of fighting coastal wind gusts, intermittent rain, semi-courtous Oregon drivers and super fast road bikers, the issues of cycling in cities is at the top of my awareness radar.

Hence, this post.

    Why the beef with “super fast road bikers”? Are they not being courtous?

    No, seriously, are they passing too close? Grabbing your bum as they go by? Are you wearing an iPod and can’t hear them call “on your left”?

    Let’s celebrate everyone who uses pedal power to get to work, even if some of them (as I saw for the first time the other day) ride recumbent trikes. ;-)

    oh i absolutely celebrate pedal power, I use it daily! I aspire to be one of those super fast people, but I have a super crappy bike :)
    No iPods either… safety first!
