	The Only Good Cyclist... NYC Bicycle Fatalities--Who's Responsible?
		Thus, although police blame cyclist error for three-fourths (75%) of cyclist fatalities, in fact, driver error was the principal cause in 57% of recent fatal bicycle crashes and at least a contributing cause in 78%.
		The NYPD failed to inform cycling representatives and the public that the rate of cyclists killed in traffic was accelerating during 1999.
		After the record rise in cyclist fatalities was uncovered by Right Of Way and T.A., the NYPD blamed the deaths on the cyclists while ignoring driver misconduct and police indifference.

	Cyclist dies in race at PIR - July 13, 2005
		The 29-year-old cyclist from Milwaukie, whose name was withheld pending family notification, was 300 yards from finishing the 40-mile race when he lost control of his bike, said Lt. Allen Oswalt, spokesman for Portland Fire and Rescue.
		Oswalt said the cyclist suffered "huge head trauma" and died at the scene.
		Race organizer Jeff Mitchem said the cyclist, who had several years of racing experience, was in a pack sprinting toward the finish line when he tried to pass on a straightaway and veered off course.

	What Should We Do about George?
		Reading through past Virginia Cyclist articles is a good way for members to understand the goals and works of the Federation.
		And he admits that when he does drive a car, if some cyclist passes by him when he is stopped at a light and streaks across on a red, he feels a moment of anger.
		Too often, bicyclists in such situations report that the voiced or unvoiced presumption on the part of the police is that the cyclist was in the wrong, was the negligent party.

	EBikesNW: The Cyclist's Electric Bike Shop
		A cyclist regards pedalling as a reward rather than a punishment—whether he or she bikes currently or has not ridden for decades and whether he or she is fit or out-of-shape.
		A cyclist is someone who appreciates the handling, lightness and aesthetics of a bicycle.
		The cyclist prefers a bicycle-akin electric bike, one that also pedals with ease in the power-off mode.

	Cyclist Inferiority by John Forester
		By considering cyclists inferior to motorists, government can deny to cyclists some of the important rights that apply, in legal terms, to drivers of vehicles, but which are commonly supposed to apply to motorists, because cyclists and motorists are the only significant users of the nation's roadways.
		It is absurd to consider that most adult cyclists are incapable of knowing how to obey the traffic laws when most adult cyclists, in the USA at least, have been certified by the government as having that knowledge and skill.
		Thirty percent of car-bike collisions in the Cross study (mid 1970s) are caused by the cyclist obeying the precepts of bike-safety education.

		Viken Berberian's unnamed narrator in THE CYCLIST is a terrorist moved to violence by the injustices he perceives around him.
		The cyclist's idyllic childhood was shattered, however, when a bomb was dropped on his quiet village.
		The scene and character motivations are purposefully vague; the cyclist is undoubtedly Middle Eastern, yet he is seemingly affiliated with the Druze, Muslim, and Jewish cultures.

	Cyclist Errors Which Cause Automobile-Bicycle Collisions, Illustrated
		Whenever a cyclist arrives at a major roadway from an alleyway or drive or whenever the cyclist starts out onto the roadway, the cyclist should carefully scan in both directions to be sure that no vehicle is approaching.
		A cyclist traveling the wrong way on the street that the motorist is turning right onto is very unlikely to be seen by the motorist in time even if there is no parked car because the motorist will have his attention focused on the opposite traffic lane.
		A cyclist is daydreaming while riding down the street and runs into the back of a parked car (1.4% of collisions, of which 10% were severe) or he runs into the back of a slow or stopped car (1.3% of collisions, of which 5% were severe).

	How To Fit Your Custom Bicycle
		A taller cyclist who wants a more comfortable frame may be better off selecting a frame 27—28cm less than inseam length, C-T. For a mountain bike, we start by recommending a frame in the range of 10—12cm smaller than you take in a road frame.
		The neutral knee position serves as a good starting point for most cyclists, though many adjust it from here: long distance (stage) racers and mountain bikers often move the saddle back by 1cm or more, for power, and sprinters may move it forward, “getting on top of the gear” for quick acceleration.
		Most cyclists select a bar that is just as wide as their shoulders, measured as the distance between the shoulder joints.

		The Cyclist explores the background and motivations of its unnamed narrator, a Lebanese terrorist-in-training given the task of detonating a bomb (delivered on his bicycle) at a luxury hotel outside of Beirut.
		Berberian's 'The Cyclist' is, put simply, the thoughts of a terrorist as he recovers from a bicycle accident and prepares himself for another terrorist mission.
		The cyclist is given some motivation (a marketplace bombing in his village as a youth), but his group and his mission are so absurd (he's supposed to enter a cycling race in order to "blend in"?) that his situation can't be taken seriously as an insight to terrorist thought.

	The Cycling Dude: The Well Read Cyclist

		Cyclists endangered by "dooring" by oblivious drivers-- Published Monday, June 28, 2004, in the Sacramento Bee byTony Bizjak.
		The authors also discuss the practice many cyclists employ of the "rolling stop" where the cyclist slows to about 5mph as he or she approaches a stop sign and, if the way appears clear, proceed on through the intersection without stopping.

	Intermediate-Level Cyclist Training Program (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		The club cyclists were rated much more stringently than other adult cyclists, both because they were rated by criteria that allowed only minute deviations from the most desirable path and because they traveled a route which included merges and diverges, multiple-turn-lanes, roadways with 40,000 ADT at 50 mph, overcrossings and underpasses.
		A competent cyclist might occasionally forget when flustered by circumstances, or risk it when a greater danger threatened, but he would not casually neglect it merely because nobody was watching him.
		Forester has frequently remarked that among adult cyclists it is the most cautions who ride most dangerously; their combination of fear and incompetence causes them to ride dangerously while blaming supposed dangers upon other causes; in contrast, competent cyclists ride safely, accepting responsibility for their actions and with little fear.

	The Cyclist Lifestyle -- The Culture of Cycling Enthusiasts and Bike People
		History can help, as the first recorded use of "cyclist" (in 1881) was as the name of a magazine for bicycle enthusiasts.
		It seems that all cyclists share many idiosyncrasies (however oxymoronic that may be) which are not understood by occasional bike riders.
		Cycling in the Sixties: A History of US Bicycling in the 1960's According to most accounts, bicycling reappeared as adult recreation in the 70's, but actually there was a good bit of growth and change during the 60's which made the cycling boom of the 70's possible.

		It may be that these components can be learned sufficiently early to meet the young cyclists' need for mobility with reasonable safety, or it may be that these components are so difficult that some other arrangement must be devised for young cyclists.
		One can conclude, then, that given the prevalent travel and traffic-accident patterns of very young American cyclists, it is possible to teach them to properly operate in their present environment and thus avoid the largest proportion of their traffic accidents.
		These courses concentrate on preventing the cyclist from creating his own hazards by teaching him to act properly, which I think is a necessary prerequisite to detecting and avoiding the hazards caused by others.

	Subtle Little Clues that Indicate a True Cyclist
		Jack Dingler reminded us that cyclists have longer shoe laces on the left than on the right, Ilana Stern pointed out that right shoe laces also have badly frayed loops, and Jeff DelPapa correctly noted that, on a tandem rider, both sets of shoe laces are chewed up.
		However, paradoxically, a true cyclist® knows "every street, way, lane, path, and route around his home" and, when offering directions, the cyclist will supply all kinds of information that's meaningless to anyone else, such as the steepness of hills (BIT from Germany).
		According to Phil Feldman, the true cyclist® keeps his bike right next to his chair, a Velonews mousepad sits on the desk, and when he enters the room, he checks the cycling newsgroups before doing any work.
