Passing thoughts on riding fast

[John “Dabby” Campbell]
If there is one thing that cycling allows, it is freedom. The ability to choose your path, to clear your head, enjoy the fresh air, and to get where you need to, in the time frame you so choose.
Some people ride at a leisurely pace, having either left early to get where they have to go, or having nowhere at all to get to. This is nice; rolling around, watching the birds, the changing colors of trees, taking big, deep breaths of air. Maybe even taking a longer route into town before work.
PDOT to host bike law discussion
[The Capitol building in Salem.]
If you’re interested in this year’s bike legislation in Salem and beyond, you won’t want to miss an upcoming discussion being hosted by PDOT.
As part of their ongoing Bicycle Brown Bag series, they’re bringing in Scott Bricker of the BTA and Karmen Fore from U.S. Congressman Peter DeFazio’s office for a statewide and national perspective on current bike-related legislation.
To brush up on the topic, read my two reports from a recent trip to Salem, a discussion of the BTA’s “Passing Law” bill and the BTA’s 2007 legislation page.
