Jos jedna stvar za svisnut od muke:

"Each ART (ART = Arlington Transit, Virginia) bus has a two-place bike
rack that will hold standard length bicycles. Bikes ride free with the ART
passenger.  This can be an easy way to meet your friends across town for
a ride, extend your riding horizons,  get home if you have a flat, or take
your bike for maintenance"

Kod nas bi ubili onog tko proba s biciklom u autobus!

Biciklistica preminula od posljedica prometne nesreće

"Nesreća se dogodila u trenutku kada je 46-godišnji mještanin
Zdenaca, upravljajući teretnim vozilom s prikolicom, počeo pretjecati
bicikl. Zbog nedovoljnog bočnog razmaka između teretnog vozila i bicikla,
dio prikolice udario je biciklistkinju, koja je pala na rubnik kolnika."

Naletio na biciklistice pijan i skrivio tragediju

"Dvije žene vraćale su se s posla kući kad je na njih s leđa naletio VW
Golf slatinskih oznaka kojim je upravljao I. M. (39) iz Slatine. Nesreća se
dogodila najvjerojatnije zbog toga što je vozač bio pod utjecajem alkohola."

Cool site.
Have a look at this: Bicycling Meditations

"Welcome to my Bicyling Meditation pages. This site is for those who are members of the "Congregation of the Spoked Wheel" - those who sit in meditation not just in the pew or on a zafu, but the saddles of their bikes."

Reddit: A bicycle with no hubs in its wheels?

"Looks more like a design study than a working prototype. Assuming that
can support a person's weight, how can that front wheel possibly be stable
at any speed?"

Reddit: Driver kills a cyclist whilst downloading ringtones to her phone and
is sentenced for... improper lane usage.

"Sidewalks are reserved for pedestrians. Road shoulders are often
covered with tire-puncturing debris. Crosswalks are an afterthought and
somewhat treacherous."

Bicycles beat subway as fastest mode of travel in New York City

"The starting line — at a Brooklyn cafe — had the cyclist off and pedaling
the moment the race began. The subway rider, though, had to use his two
feet first to get to the station and then transfer to a bus; the car contestant
wasted precious minutes waiting for a cab."

could, and the stress of the day seems to melt away on the bike ride home."
