Subject: RE: safer to go fast or go long? what do you mean by safer?
a ) less likely to injure yourself- proably depends on your level of fitness
b ) less likely to get hit by a car- statistically speaking more time on the bike increases your chances, but also more time on the bike makes you a more experienced rider and more aware of your surroundings, so that should decrease your risk some
c ) less likely to get skin cancer- wear sunblock for either one
d ) less likely to get a saddle sore- short ride
d ) less likely to crash during a race and become one with someone elses bike- HIM or IM
