On Saturday, I was made aware of UCI World Cup Series in Cali, Columbia. When 30 yards from exactly the same spot where
I had been run over previously by our friendly police department,
I decided that this should not occur; unless, we practice extreme
sports. We wish extreme caution and not to jump curbs or highway dividers to all riders.
Please stay in your lane and allow the police patrol
to guide you. They always mean well.
