Last night I just finished reading "The Pace 2.0" by Nick Ienatsch in the latest issue of Cycle World and as I am a big believer in the original Pace 1.0 it was very informative reading the updated 2.0.
In the last week up here in NorCal on the local riders forum we've have yet another rider fatality yesterday evening on a group ride on one of my favorite local roads and a rider losing a leg due to a collision with a guard rail on another road which gave me pause to reflect on my riding habits and reflecting back to the tenets of "The Pace" philosophy.
I got shivers thinking about the SoCal Hoonapalooza ride and Wavex's accident and all things considered, how lucky David was with the extent of his injuries. I'm in no way discounting ther seriousness of his injuries but I thank God that he will recover completely and that he is still with us.
So basically all I am saying is everyone please ride within your skill limits and not push it on the street. I don't want to see anymore posts about crashes or even worse the loss of a life. I value eveyone on the forum too much.
Sermon over, please continue with your lives and have a happy 4th of July. :thumbup:
