So I crashed by bike yesterday. Normally that is no big deal, but I did it while riding along Queen St. East attempting to turn left. Now if this has ever happened to you, you know there is little time to react. One minute you’re spinning along and the next …
So I am planning another cross-country attempt this summer. This time I will ride from East to West so that I finish in Victoria. There are some advantages to this. First, my family will be at the finish. They live in Victoria so I presume they will come out, secondly …
