More evidence of the health benefits of cycling
Clean living way to beat cancer:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/7908675.stm "Over 40% of breast and bowel cancer cases in rich countries are preventable through diet, physical activity and weight control alone, experts say. Simple measures like cycling to work and swapping fatty foods for fruit can make all the difference for these and many other cancers, they say." Good stuff. "There is no magic bullet, no one single fix to the problem. If we are to tackle the situation we need individuals, business and government to work together to encourage healthy lifestyles by promoting things like cycle lanes and food labelling." Oh dear. |

Do you know that someone using the name Roger Thorpe impersonates you from time to time? -- The Bicycle Helmet Research Foundation (BHRF) is an independent body with the message: Helmets are not beneficial to cyclists - unless the evidence forces them to a dramatically different conclusion. |
