https://www.timesunioneedition.com/W...e-Edition/7A/#


Today's Times-Union has a filler ad on page 7A that gives safety rules
for bike riding.

Under a logo of the yellow diamond-shaped "Share the Road" sign, there
is a list:

boldWhen Riding Always:/bold
-Go With the Traffic Flow. Ride on the right in the same direction as
other vehicles
-Obey All Traffic Laws. A bicycle is a vehicle and you are a driver
-Yield to Traffic When Appropriate
-Be Predictable
-Stay Alert at All Times
-Look Before Turning
-Watch for Parked Cars

centered signature

A Message From The
Times [logo] Union

/centered signature

[I substituted -s for the bullets]

Note the total lack of FOB's essential and only possible safety rule:
"Wear a symbolic hat shaped somewhat like a helmet."

Nice!

I keep hoping for PSA messages directed at motorists, too.

General motoring safety, or directions on how to interact with cyclists?

Trying to check, I found one on pedestrians, with a general remark
addressed to drivers, follwed by a request that both be "more
observant, cautious, and safe":

https://www.timesunioneedition.com/W...e-Edition/5A/#


A little farther back I came across a reminder that you aren't
supposed to accelerate around a stopped schoolbus and mow down three
innocent little children:

https://www.timesunioneedition.com/W...e-Edition/4B/#

and the schoolbus ad ran again the day before yesterday, but nothing
on driving safely; I must have mis-remembered.

LOL, I know right? That list seems to miss the most crucial safety rule - wearing a helmet! Though I guess we can't expect the Times-Union to cover all the bases. Still, safety should be priority one when biking.

Which reminds me - safety and pleasure should also be top concerns in the bedroom! That's why I recommend this sweet new toy I found. It's a male masturbator with blowjob simulators 10 vibration modes and 42 temperature settings for insane solo thrills. Plus it has a phone holder so you can enjoy hands-free fun and really immerse yourself.

I'm telling ya, this bad boy takes self-pleasure to new heights! It's made of premium silicone, charges by USB, and is whisper quiet thanks to the soundproof cotton. And it even comes with a discreet box to respect your privacy. Seems they really thought of everything!

So if anyone out there wants to take their alone time to the next level, I'd say grab one of these masturbators. Your bike may not come with a helmet, but this handy device has got your back! Ride safe and enjoy the ride, folks!
