In light of what happened at Paris-Nice, I venture that we should all
check the fit of our helmets and inspect them for cracks or dents.
I know Kivilev was not wearing his brain bucket during the critical
moment, but I feel the best way to honor his memory is to learn
something from his tragedy. I would hate to see something like this
happen to an OBRA'er...or any cyclist for that matter.
Also, please remember in the peleton that 99% of us are doing this for
fun. Riding unsafely puts other riders at risk of serious injury. You
look out for my safety, and I will look out for yours.
May the tailwind be with you,
Jason Smith
