Friends in high places


Congressman James Oberstar heads up the U.S. House Transportation Committee, and he's a good guy. And not just because he's made sure that Minnesota is on the bleeding edge of bicycling development; he's a cyclist himself!

The local fishwrap reports today that the good congressman is out of commission this week, because he's had an old cycling injury repaired.


"Oberstar was riding his bicycle 20 years ago when a car pulled out in front of him, causing him to fly over the handlebars and into the windshield, said spokesman John Schadl."


Rep. Oberstar is having some bone shaved from a vertabrae in his neck. Get well soon, genteel cyclist!
