Four sets of essential points for cyclists to remember
As promised 10 days ago here are the pithy points.
To recap: The object is to have memorable phrases to cover the important issues. You can see a pretty web page at http://www.eminent.demon.co.uk/pedalpoints.htm and from there you can get to an expanded list. Rules of the ride * See and be seen * You are traffic * Space doesn't hurt * Prepare for junctions Traps of the trip * Junction jumpers * Rubbish Road * Never overtake lorries * Loony left hookers Bits of the bike * Size suits * Wheels work * Brakes bite * Mechanical mischief Joy of the Journey * Beauty of back routes * Speed of commute * Fun of fitness * Independence or party Please remember when explaining them to somebody that the FIRST important thing is to remember the points themselves and ONLY THEN can you hang the more detailed meanings onto the mantra. Comments to the (spamtrapped) address in the sig. -- PETER FOX Not the same since the deckchair business folded www.eminent.demon.co.uk/wcc.htm Witham Cycling Campaign www.eminent.demon.co.uk/rides East Anglian Pub cycle rides |
