Greetings all, and courteous riding

Hello everyone,
I'm Alex. My dad is BykMor and he has this nifty ability to open the front door and that confounded contraption that holds my kibble, but I'm the blogger in the family. Besides, I've forgotten more about bikes than he'll ever know. And I can herd them like no one's business. I get to post to SaltCycle every now and again.

Say what you will about spring in SLC, but the weather WILL get warmer and more people will get out riding. Not enough, mind you... but more. Critical Mass type rides are a neat idea, but don't always have the desired effect. My dad is always complaining about how it probably ticks off more drivers than it enlightens. I stumbled across this a few days ago:http://blog.bicyclecoalition.org/2010/03/philadelphia-courteous-mass.html and thought it sounded neat. We should try it here.
