I'm not an expert on this, but I did sit through my company safety lecture covering proper usage of masks. Those paper masks are good for keeping sawdust out...
The only way to ensure that you are not breathing specific particulates or gases of concern (e.g. ozone) is to wear a half-mask respirator with cartridges...
Yay to Bruce for listening to safety lectures! OK, Bruce covered the ground where I didn't go in terms of fit, doctor's advice, etc. And he's right on all...

This is important! I'll be there... hope to see some other faces, the train is an important asset to a lot of cyclists & I'd love to see it be feasible. Just...
Without getting too deep into his numbers (maybe later) I find it had to believe that the energy savings a lifetime of bicycling is offset by 10.6more days of...
Didn't someone post a link to, or the text of, or a story about, this same article a few weeks ago? I remember reading that the author of the study was an...
Somewhere in the discussion of this paper is mention the Swiftonian nature of the argument... (an editorial somewhere? read it a week or so ago, so can't...
This whole argument made by the author is preposterous. A bicyclist saves energy by reducing usage of fossil fuels but is healthier and lives longer - and...
