Question of the week: Why did our ride director share his mishap last weekend? Because it can and does happen to all of us. A little embarrassing, but we need to be cautious all the time. Just a mile prior I was thinking about the debris in the road and happy I have not gotten a flat tire in a while. I may have even picked up the little wire that caused the slow leak at that exact moment. Let’s share our experiences so that we can all build a knowledge base and hopefully avoid the incidents that we can.
Safety Tip of the Week: Ride One or Two Across-Ride single file or double file as appropriate to the roadway and traffic conditions and where allowed by law. Even where riding double is legal, courtesy dictates that you single up when cars are trying to pass you if the lane is wide enough for them to safely do so.
| When riding with us: | ||||||
| · wear helmets and ensure your bike is in good working order | ||||||
| · stay in bike lanes and no more than two abreast on them; single file otherwise | ||||||
| · not overlap wheels | ||||||
| · descend carefully! Look out for debris, animals, potholes, tight bends, and slick spots | ||||||
| · pass slower riders on the left | ||||||
