Default It's a dangerous sport!

When my kid took up competitive cycling I smugly believed it was much safer than hockey or football. HA!

At least those guys don't have to contend with road rage and SUV's.

But the main thing is, Mark - just watch out for headers. They are really hard on the c-spine!!!!

I'm pretty sure the four I have taken over the last 15 years are the reason my neck is a mess now.

And here I've been wishing I could ride a bike at all. I guess I should be careful what I wish for!

Hey Ray... I get enough abuse from Doreen and Paulette! Nice to see you here... I hope you are well.

Take care,

Mark
