MAC's RIDE TO EAT - Cape Cod

Mac was  organized in response to the death of Donald "Mac" McCulloch of
Sandwich, MA.  Don was killed in July 1993 when a truck carrying an
unsecured load passed his cycling group too closely.

======================
Recently we had a discussion on Paddlewise about securing boats to racks.
Today i was watching biking on tv and learned bout Mac who died while biking
when a canoe flew from a passing truck... a strange and terrible death to be
sure.

 'MAC's RIDE TO EAT' is held yearly on Cape Cod. It is quite a tribute to
Mac. In our own way, let's quitetly support MAC, 'a non-profit member
organization committed to creating a  bicycle friendly atmosphere on Cape
Cod that encourages residents and  tourists to ride bicycles for
transportation and recreation. '

certainly anything can happen. let's continue to tie our boats securely to
our cars and trucks... and if some of us are on Cape Cod, let's join in on
MAC's RIDE TO EAT.
