Models on the market, at the production stage or already manufactured on 1 January 2011 are not required to be approved during the transition stage.

But after beating Brazilians fifth seeds Alison Cerutti and Alvarao Filho in straight sets, they advanced to the Lucky Losers bracket in which they handed a straight-set loss to Chinese Peng Gao and Yang Li. This victory advanced them to the first eliminator against Brazilians world champs and Olympic medallists Evandro Goncalves and Bruno Oscar Schmidt.

  • The Colorado Safety Stop
    Updated 02-02-2021 1 The Colorado Safety Stop What is the Safety Stop? The Safety Stop creates a safer way for people on bikes to cross at intersections when they have the right of way. The maneuver allows people riding bicycles to: ● treat stop signs as yield signs. ● treat stop lights as stop signs. The Safety Stop does not impact the current right-of-way whatsoever. Bicycles can proceed straight, right, or left at a reasonable speed of no more than 15 miles per hour only when the coast is clear. Why make this legal statewide? The Safety Stop has a number of benefits, including the fact that it: ● is cost-neutral, safety-enhancing policy. ● encourages people to ride for transportation, protecting and enhancing our air quality. ● attracts tourism and increases livability. ● allows police to focus on major infractions (e.g. reckless endangerment) rather than common behaviors. Most importantly, it’s safer for bicyclists and motorists alike. Research shows that the Safety Stop: ● Reduces interactions between motorists and bicyclists in intersections. ● Reduces crashes in intersections. ● Increases the visibility of bicyclists in the intersection. ● Reduces the number of bicyclist-only injuries associated with starting and stopping on a bicycle. Additionally, adopting the safety stop decriminalizes a common-sense behavior for bicyclists, taking a potential crime off the books. This also frees up law enforcement resources to focus on bigger, more pressing issues. Conversations with law enforcement officials across the state indicate this is not a crime they currently enjoy focusing on. Finally, Colorado’s current system for adopting the Safety Stop on a community-by-community basis creates a dangerous patchwork of places where this is and is not allowed.

  • 2021 Giro Virtuale Ride Report 210602
    Giro d’Italia Virtuale 2021 had not given much thought to a 2021 Giro d’Italia Virtuale until I was contacted out of the blue via LinkedIn the week before the real Giro I started. “Are you the Pike Talbert who created the Fulgaz Giro d'Italia Virtuale last year at https://fulgaz.com/my-giro-ditalia-virtuale-pike- talbert?” his note began. “If so, I'm wondering if you were going to curate a version 2.0 for the 2021 Giro?” That was all the inspiration I needed! A week later: Tahdah! An initial draft was complete: 21 stages utilising 20 FulGaz rides, 14 of which were new this year—either recently released by FulGaz, or recently discovered by moi. Several iterations later the final version was complete. The Table below provides a comparative Summary. A couple of background comments are worth highlighting: • My Giro last year was mostly about climbing as many of the famous and iconic mountain passes as possible. I have discovered the hard way that this is actually boring (not to mention painful). It turns out that flatter, rolling stages usually contain better scenery—a “smell the roses” approach that favours vistas and seeing more of Italy’s natural beauty over elevation gain and degree of difficulty. Thus, I have inserted more flatter and rolling stages. • Most of the rides I have eliminated in favour of the new ones are longer climbs (i.e., greater than 90 minutes based on videographer time and 3 of the 4 Stelvio-related ascents). It is for this reason that the total time is nearly an hour less than last year.

INTRODUCTION On urban roadways built for motorists, how best to accommodate the urban cyclist? That intrepid soul who dares to brave the shared space of the road on two wheels, yet all too commonly endures the wrath of those on four. The cyclist may choose to commute by bike because of personal choice, wanting to do her part in battling climate change, or to increase her fitness. As compared to driving, cycling has lower economic cost and can enhance access and opportunity to the benefits of the city for those with less means (or those who choose to spend them elsewhere), such as em- ployment, education, culture, and community.

By revenue, the market expanded 7.3% CAGR to around W513bn during the same period. This underscores that market growth June 30, 2015 has been driven more by price than by volume. We believe Korea’s bicycle market remains underpenetrated at 29%, far lower than the 60-80% penetration rates seen in Daewoo Securities Co., Ltd. Europe and Japan.
