I've been thinking about this for a bit. Did anyone catch the "Riding 101" booklet that Team Puma put out in NYC last year? It was ACTUALLY very rad. I had a lot of information on how to survive riding your bike in the city and was written with the help of Kevin Bulgar (sp?) or "Squid" and a bunch of the other NYC couriers who've been on the road a while.

Anyways, I was thinking it would be cool if we all collaborated on some basic things people should know and shoot a video for YouTube etc... - a sort of video version of "Riding 101" and we could even make ours Toronto specific (i.e. - the devil strip, etc...) And also cutting one that's geared towards drivers somehow illustrating how scarey it can be when people use a vehicle as a weapon and how quick something can go from "I'm gonna teach that biker a lesson" to "oh my god... I totally just killed that guy on a bike." I may be wrong, but I feel that's where the disconnect is. Or at least one of the major ones.

Thoughts?
