Cyclists And Pool Noodles

The hard truth is that bicycles are still largely seen as a nuisance on the road. We’re on the margins—literally. Cyclists are reminded of this every time we get skimmed by a car.

Hello, my name is John Neller, and I am a member of the Boeing Employees Bicycle Club, living in Auburn WA. In addition to being a cyclist, I am also an enthusiastic train rider, and a member of Rail Passengers of America (RPA), a rail advocacy organization. As such I have often combined bicycle rides with trains, both in the US and abroad. I have found this to be a good combination of modes of transportation, allowing me to extend bike trips without having to ‘double back’, and to visit locations that would otherwise be too far apart to incorporate in a single bike trip.
