To all GCCers and
Team VetMeders,
If anyone
doesn’t get
the newsletters by e-mail from the Florida Bicycle Association I thought
I’d
pass the following along. It looks like a good site to report incidents or
to
look for potential trouble spots for cyclist.
REPORT CYCLING EXPERIENCES TO HELP OTHERS AVOID TROUBLE
SPOTS
www.RoadGuardian.com is a tool cyclists can use
to
report, mark and share cycling incidents and trouble spots. Once
shared,
cyclists can use the information to plan safe routes to ride by avoiding
potentially risky routes. The goal is to save cyclists' lives and
make
cycling safer for everyone. This site's value and benefit to the cycling
world
is dependent upon cyclists taking the time to report their cycling
experiences:
close calls, collisions, deaths, pot holes, harassment, doorings, etc.
I hope all cyclists will consult the site in planning their routes to
ride. Hopefully, by making cycling safer for today's cyclists I will
help
non-cyclists feel a greater sense of safety so they might become tomorrow's
cyclists. By adding more cyclists to our roads we will in fact be
making
cycling safer for everyone. Therefore, we have a lot to gain by
building
and using www.RoadGuardian.com.
