VITAband has a leg up on RoadID

You see this time and time again, RIM with Blackberries, missing the boat, iPhone taking over, Palm lost it grip in the handheld devices. Not to say that these products are bad, they were the best, plain and simple, they just failed to adapt.
RoadID, a great product has kept many safe and informed, they just failed to adapt. That being said the one thing the VITAband is missing is printed information that EMT can quickly read (RoadID) without having to make multiple calls.  Still they will capture a market the weekend social biking group, that jumps on their bike all fancy gear just to ride from one Cafe to another. Nothing wrong, but if one does not have to carry anything but a phone, well they just might pull ahead. Great product.

Everyone would bike with a GoPro HD Video Camers

According to Dave, without coming to a stop or signally, the vehicle turns right into a gas station parking lot, crossing the only path available to the cyclist.  Dave was going about 25 miles per hour at the time.  Dave sustained a bloody elbow, lower leg plus your typical road rash but amazingly was otherwise alright.  His $3,500 carbon fiber triathlon specific bike was not safe to ride afterwards and was pushed the next 6 miles into transition.

This seems to be a rough week around the globe, in Brazil, where a motorist mowed down more than a dozen in a group ride. Man Slaughter is the only thing that comes to mind. Watch video here.
