| Commute_routes |
I am a full time bicycle commuter. My route to work takes me down two frequently traveled roads (Career Center and St. George). It is very safe as long as everyone follows the law. I always wear a reflective safety vest and have a glow in the dark yiel |
| About_me |
I have worked in the retail industry for the last 26 years. I once road my bicyle from Peoria, Il. to Seattle, Wa. in 31 days. I was young then and had some free time. |
| Commute_story |
I have one particular driver who always is irritated at me. This person will honk at me when they see me. This driver also likes to try to drive as close to me as possible without hitting me. Never honk at a bicyclest. It is irritating and dangerous. |
| Comments |
I really enjoy riding in the winter. I rarely get cold because of the energy that is produced riding a bicycle. Knobby tires with metal spikes are the best tires for winter. I have never fallen on the snow or ice using them. |
