Great Hang Up: Bill introduced to fine texting while cycling | Events

GREAT HANG UP - A bill to increase fines for texting while driving, and to fine cyclists who text and ride has passed the State Senate and is now in the assembly.

A YouTube video also pokes fun at texting and cycling. We wanted an avid cyclist's perspective and watched their ride via a Go Pro "helmet cam."

May is Bike Month and  on Thursday May 17, several power stations, including the following, will be offering free breakfast to cyclists, according to the Sacramento TMA:

• Power Balance Pavilion in Natomas off Truxel from 5 a.m. - 9 a.m.
• ions Gate on Westover near McCellan.
