Greetings all. Out of personal interest, I have been collecting news items and other tidbits related to cycling. Please send in anything that you find. One day I'll get around to posting it all somewhere.
Of greatest concern to any cyclist is safety. Below is a link to an article regarding cycling fatalities and the stats. Makes for interesting reading.

The latest from the Advertiser suggests that cycle commuting in Adelaide is increasing, and with all the TDU hoohah I suspect cycling will get a bigger profile and we can expect big improvements in the coming years. Of course we have the usual bureaucracy to get around (state versus local gov responsibility) and there is cultural inertia in this car-loving city that will take time to change, but I can assure you it is happening.
Remember that the best way to improve cyclist safety is to increase numbers of cyclists on the road. That's something each and every one of us can do.
