Road Biking Safety

I admit it...I've been bitten by the bike bug! It started innocently enough last year when my wife and I rode in the Five Boro Bike Tour of New York City (it is a fantastic event and a great way to see all 5 boroughs). I promptly purchased a road bike upon my return home and have been riding ever since

I live in an area of Virginia which is great for riding. I can leave my house on my bike and be on the Blue Ridge Parkway in less than 10 minutes. I try to get at least two rides (20 - 45 miles each) every week, weather permitting.

Bike Safety is a big issue with me. I always wear a helmet and try to be vigilant for the crazy or absent minded automobile driver. I found this great web site for bike safety and want to share it with my readers. The article is entitled, "How Not to Get Hit by Cars: Important Lessons in Bicycle Safety."

Just writing about the topic has me thinking I may just sneak out of the office a little early today and go for a ride.
