Spreading The Word.....

Last week a another tragic cycling fatality was recorded in Iowa. The cyclists name was David Harris and the situation that caused this tradgedy is all too common across our nation. You can read more of the details here.

It's crazy, but with the proliferation of cyclists out on our roadways it bears mentioning that we need to be "riding right" on the roads and also talking more about what we do off the bike. People that do not cycle need to know we're out there. Spread the word!

This is from a post dated June 19th on the Iowa Bicycle Coalition blog:

The family of David "Judd" Harris would like bicyclists to attend the funeral. The funeral has been set for 1:30 Friday, June 22 at Roland Funeral Home, 204 E 5th St. Atlantic, Iowa.

Thanks to Mark Wyatt who writes the Iowa Bicycle Coalition blog. I urge any cyclists that can attend this funeral to please do so.
