MEDIA ADVISORY - Pedestrian, bicycle safety campaign to launch Tuesday

That time of year for more of this junk:
The Baltimore region averages 1,700 pedestrian and 500 bicycle crashes each year, resulting in an average of 52 fatalities. The goal of Street Smart is to reduce the number of crashes, injuries and fatalities by educating drivers, pedestrians and cyclists alike about safe practices on our roadways and make them aware of increased law enforcement efforts.

I thought we were going to get a new graphic this year, guess not. So for your "safety" we offer a bit more accurate safety advice:

Like most people I live a hectic life and who has the time for much exercise? Thanks to xtracycle now I do. By using my bike for daily activities I can get things done and get an hour plus work out in 15 minutes extra of my time, not a bad deal and beats taking the extra time going to the gym. In case you are still having trouble being motivated; the National Center of Disease Control says that inactivity is the #2 killer in the United States just behind smoking. ( http://www.cdc.gov/nccdphp/bb_nutrition/ ) Get out there and start living life! I can carry home a full shopping cart of groceries, car pool two kids or just get lost in the great outdoors camping for a week. Well I got go, another outing this weekend.
