Now I know that I need to take that very seriously. <br /><br />My wife and I were in France in the fall. Of all the crazy things we were touring a 10 km network of caves used by a winery, on bicycles. Susan tried to fiddle with her head lamp that the winery had placed on our handlebars, lost control, crashed and fractured her collar bone. She is still in physio therapy and the accident happened on October 2nd, though almost fully recovered, thank heavens. <br /><br />Your advice is taken to heart.<br /><br />Thank you.

Bicycles don’t have the mass to stay upright on even very light strikes. RichardMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04773834892715980735noreply@blogger.com
