“This is part of the beauty of cycling – all it really takes to be a cycling advocate is to ride your bike. The more people there are out there riding bikes, the more cycling benefits.” –BikeSnobNYC

“Cycling, like swimming, is a lifeskill that really ought to be taught early. But this can’t be forced. If the parents don’t cycle, they might not see cycling as a lifeskill at all”–Carlton Reid
Give me intrigue or give me death?
In my two rules of bike lighting I mentioned the importance of using your lights to create “intrigue” for other road users.
Let me make it plainer: when riding at night put a flashing light and a static light on the front of your bike.

I’m late to the party on the Albert St separated bike lanes, but that’s no reason why I shouldn’t have a damn good rant about it.

At the risk of being repetitive, here I am singing the praises of Autumn cycling. Again.
