A view of the road from a cyclist’s perspective
Bryan Tollerene writes in the Friendswood Journal,
"I have lived first in Houston and now Pearland all my life. I have owned three pickup trucks and driven down a lot of farm roads. I have experienced the frustration of trying to maneuver around a group of cyclist on their road bikes first hand.
Two things happened that have changes my attitude towards cyclists.

First after years of playing golf and observing my waistline growing bigger and bigger I responded to an ad around 7 years ago from local gym Fitness Solutions to train for a mini triathlon. After participating in a few mini triathlons I continued my training focusing mainly on the biking. So low and behold I became one of those guys out on their in the road on the bike that I was always frustrated about getting around in my vehicle. The second thing I will save for later.
As I have become more involved with the cycling and met many great people through the Pearland Cycling Club and participating in the MS150 I have observed that most cyclists are concerned with riding safely out on the road with motorists."
