Hello all! From time to time I'll be posting some tips on the blog. Remember that all cue sheets for our Saturday rides will be sent via e-mail not blog.
Tip#1
Avoiding serious injury in a crash
Even though your natural tendency is to put your hands out to catch yourself during a fall, try to remember to keep them tucked in close to your body. Some coaches suggest keeping your hands on the bars during a crash. You have just a split second to react in this situation, but it could make a difference between being off the bike for 4-6 wks. and being able to ride away.

- For me, bikes=freedom. Bikes, however, are not my entire life. When not two-wheeling, you'll find me traveling, hiking, gardening, cooking and drinking good beer/wine. If you have questions feel free to contact me at: kierstin@harborathletic.com I also write a monthly column for Silent Sports magazine (www.silentsports.net) and once in awhile write for the Wisconsin Bicycle Federation where I'm currently a board member (www.bfw.org).
