Motorists making a right turn is one of the most frequent types of collisions for cyclists. While riding on a shoulder is fine for a straightaway, it’s no place to be when at an intersection.

Apparently, being a garbage man is better than being a paramedic.
Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited to all we now know and understand, while imagination embraces the entire world, and all there ever will be to know and understand.”
