Let's Roll Together!

In case you weren't aware, today is the start of National Bike Month. I am supporting People For Bikes in their drive to create awareness that cyclists and cars can coexist on the road.

I've made the promise and would like to ask you to make a promise.

When To Stop

Today, I received an email update from Bicycling Magazine. One of the articles caught my attention so I clicked on it and headed over to their website to read the full story. While on that page, another story caught my attention, one written by an old cycling buddy of mine, Bob Mionske.

Bob and I were on the US National Team in the late 80's. Bob represented the US at the 1988 Olympics, narrowly missing a medal in the road race by literally a tire width. Bob is now a nationally known cycling lawyer with a practice exclusively focused on representing cyclists.

Pushing Past Your Limits

Ever have a moment at which time at which you just can’t go any further? Whether it's exhaustion or fatigue, in work or on the bike, you are exhausted and your body says "no more?" 

But does that mean you've hit your limit or is there more? Is our ability to achieve success limited?

MAP-21 and Safer Cycling

Recently, here in Newport Beach, two cyclists were killed by motorists in a three day span. Both deaths were unnecessary and make me wonder exactly how this could happen given where the accidents occur.
So, while at Interbike, I took the opportunity to spend some time with folks from Bikes Belong and the League of American Bicyclists. The mission of both organizations are to be cycling advocates and have a lot of industry backing to support their missions.
