I was going to add Ken Kifer’s Bike pages to the Elsewhere links, after reading the thread at Metafilter that he was killed in an accident. Highly unfortunate circumstances he died in, so might just as well add it to the actual weblog contents.
Kifer’s experiences on his bike and traffic safety pages are so recognizable that it leaves me wonder what would happen if there was an official policy in NS or Canada, to promote cycling.
Related to this story, we managed to get me some more tools for the bike (a pump and a couple of small tools to patch the tubes). I should show my wife how to quickly fix (rather patch) a bike tire since she isn’t used to seeing me actually fixing something that has not to do with computers or programs.
