Bike To Work Day is coming

Bike to Work Day is this Friday May 18 in San Diego (and elsewhere). I am planning to break a long layoff from my bike commute. I will try to hit up a couple of the pit rest stops on my way in. Remember to say thanks to the volunteers! Hope you get out there, whether you ride daily, or if it's your first ride ever, or first of the year (like me).

A Quick Tip

It's like that whole Best of San Diego business was a death knell for both my blogging and bike commuting. I must admit that I'm still a bit confused by it. San Diego Magazine never even notified me of my inclusion in the issue. That's weird, right? If not for Paul from sdurban.com, I would never have known about it. At. All. (so thanks, again, Paul!)


Anyway...

I haven't biked to work since October, I think, and I still have not done a bike commute in 2012. I did, however, get on the saddle the other day for a nice little 20 miler. Now that spring is upon us, and I'm seeing more and more cyclists out on the road, I just wanted to share this link that I saw on Twitter last week.

Michael Bluejay's "How Not To Get Hit By Cars" bicyclesafe.com contains a lot of good, practical advice.

Also, I just saw that Bike Snob NYC has a new book out...
