Proposed Team Uniform

Road safety rule number 1: need to be seen!

Homework

Always a good idea to do some research!

Our Inspiration

Mr. Liu is the president of Giant Bicycle in Taiwan. He rode around the island at age 73. Since we are younger than him, I guess we should be able to do it too!

Preparation

Ben is preparing for a sprint triathlon on September 12,2010. That includes biking.

Ester is going to start biking in October when it is cooler in Taipei.

Milo started riding his bike from home to work.
