Going over some back issues of the League of American Bicyclists I came across this article on page 8. The story was about how Omaha is becoming more bicycling friendly. Kent has always been a strong advocate of a cycling friendly community and it’s good to see his smile. Keep up the good work Kent!

I’m proud to announce that my coaching services will be affiliated with Joy Ride bicycles. I look forward to working with all the great people that are involved with this shop. On my part, I plan on bringing new and innovative ideas of coaching, training and riding, along with the tell tale proven ideas, to Lincoln and the surrounding region.

I came across this list of not so bad foods on Active nutrition. I’ve never disliked pork rinds but thought they would be bad for me. I thought they lacked any nutritional value. Then again I never really checked. Never assume.
So if you happen to see me eating a bag o’ rinds you’ll now know why.

Nike has a protection system for basketball players that offers padding in certain contact areas that players experience . There is even a design for football players. What about roller derby?
Will cyclist be then next athletes to wear something like this? I could see it as beneficial for collar bone protection. Will Lance be our guinea pig? Time will only tell.
