However, this without this step, all other attempts to make cycling better are doomed to fail. Without more people riding:

- we will only get blips of cycling races on obscure cable stations

- we will continue to get struck down on the road, and the offenders will continue to go free

- 99.9999% of the people you meet will give you a strange look when you speak of things such as "bottom brackets" and "sit bones"
