There are only two kinds of cyclists ... Print E-mail

Quoting Joe Friel, MS a highly respected cycling expert: "There are only two kinds of cyclists, regardless of whether they ride a road or mountain bike: those who have crashed and those who are going to.

We know a lot of you how have been in that first group and we appreciate the wisdom you've shared with us. How can more of us delay becoming part of the second group? Someone recently sent this British commercial to us....tell us what you think:

Why all this talk about bike safety? Because we care.  And we know a lot of you have already had your fill of injuries.  If attending the Moab Century Tour please take a moment to read Utah's rules of the road.
