Riding in Traffic

While I am convalesing and doing some research on the web I ran Across a paper on Riding Velos in Traffic from the:
 6th European Seminar on Velomobile Design, Copenhagen 2009.
It was a good read, take a look espaecially if you are new velonaut like myself.
You can read more extracts when you folow the threads on the bottom of the  PDF.

By the way the next Seminar is happening in September 2012 anyone from N.A. want to go? Hmmmm
