Twitter Updates for 2008-09-30

  • Pearl Izumi Cyclone full-fingered gloves get two thumbs up (from me, as of yesterday). #
  • It’s a mystery to me why more cyclists don’t ride with a rear view mirror. Maybe they don’t know about them? #
  • I can barely ride without a rear view mirror any more. I feel that it’s more a necessity than a helmet. #
  • Don’t get me wrong, though–helmets, while not a magical shield, are, IMO, essential. #
  • It’s just that a mirror is used very often and is an effective tool of prevention. Hopefully, that helmet never gets used. #
  • I can recommend the “Take a Look” mirror for eyeglasses. Don’t get the plastic one that’s similar. It WILL break. #
