i DO remember the 'ride like a drunk' theory being advanced a while back...is helemt heds DLLP- BLT powerweave the "drunken biker"? that was a crock! I have enough of a good time riding drunk at night already!

hey, ya got to pass the cars, pass the cars, pass the cars.
Funny, this kind of sounds like what bike messengers do, except they don't care about traffic signals.

skill and art? Yes, the skill and art of being a complete ******bag in traffic. I don't let power-weavers in.
