A new Threespot tradition
I’ve been trying to bike to work a lot more lately, partly because I hate sitting in traffic alongside tons of other passenger-less cars and because I need to drop some lbs. There’s also a side of me that feels good about being good to mother earth and not shelling out tons of $$ for gas.
My bike commute to work over the past two weeks has been interesting. I’d like drop some knowledge for any non-bike people who may be reading this.
Doored (dor-ed): When someone opens their car door without looking causing a cyclist to collide with said door. Saw this happen to fellow bikers twice in the last two weeks.
Tacoed (tah-coh-ed): When any part of your bike — typically your wheel — gets bent beyond repair. This morning I witnessed a woman back into a rider and somehow bend his front wheel 90 degrees. Luckily, he was all right.
Ride safely out there friends.
