As many know by now, Eric was hit by a car yesterday on Hollister. A car cut in front of him turning onto the freeway on Hollister. I'll let Eric talk about the details since I wasn't there, but he is miraculously fine despite a gash and some road rash. I just thought this would be a good reminder about being careful on the roads. We are vulnerable and don't do well against cars. Ride safely, even if you have the right of way, make sure to check that you're seen by drivers. Keep your hands on the bars and keep them in a place where you can use your brakes or steer around something.

This does not apply to Eric's situation, but thought this would be a good opportunity to remind everybody about this stuff.

Be safe, obey the rules of the road and have a good remainder of the break. Make sure to ride if you can. First race is the end of January!
Kits will be ready for everybody as soon as we get back from school. Also, make sure to get your physicals in.

Danny
