Joshua over at bluelens has this nice roundup of various bicycle-related links and advice.

Cycling is one of the very few kinds of exercise I really like. I'll even cycle in the winter as long as the weather permits. Snow is the worst because it pushes me out into the street where rush-hour-addled commuters whiz by. Scariest moment I've had so far is when some lady just flat didn't see me come alongside during a right turn and "closed the door" on me. Kept pushing me closer and closer to the snowbank until finally my pedal caught in her car's wheel and spun it right around. Hope I gave it a nice long scratch.

Don't worry mom, I don't go out in the snow anymore. Some things will scare even me.
