Get a bicycle. You will not regret it if you live.

This quote by Amy Webster makes us even more paranoid about riding on the street: "The sound of a car door opening in front of you is similar to the sound of a gun being cocked."

This quote by David Perry made sense after we witnessed a man on Moorpark Street lying on the ground after a door was opened in front of him: "What do you call a cyclist who doesn't wear a helmet? An organ donor."

Luckily, he was wearing a helmet.

As much as we love and promote biking in Los Angeles, there is nothing more stressful than riding a bike in the street with parked cars on one side and speeding by cars on the other. It's just not fun on some streets, even those with Class II Paths (bike lane on a street)

The shot above would be a nice dream though...

Okay, so that picture is from a Kaiser Permanente commercial. And the title is a quote from Mark Twain in Taming the Bicycle
