Cycling Links for July 26

Cyclist blogger's firsthand account of the recent Seattle Critical Mass's violent run-in with a car that intentionally drove into a few cylists attempting to block it. I'm not a fan of Critical Mass because it promotes disregard for the rules of the road and invites car vs cyclist confrontations like this.

Quality German built Danish style commuter bike. I love the look and it sounds like a lot of fun to ride.

Lothar Hennighausen's 2008 Cascade 1200 report. Mountain climbs and Eastern Washington heat make for a challenging combination.
