Bike Lawyer Bruce Deming Competes in 24 Hour Solo World Championships
 |
| Bike Lawyer Bruce Deming |
You will recall that the former program manager for Bike Arlington, Chris Eatough, holds the record for winning six 24-hour solo world championships, an amazing accomplishment. Chris also won two 24-hour solo NORBA national championships. It's hard to imagine what it must take to compete in such a race.
In 2013 Bruce attended a monthly FABB meeting to discuss his work and his book Surviving the Crash: Your Rights in a Bike Accident. See our other coverage of Bruce in previous blog posts.
Recently Bruce worked with WABA to support their contributory negligence campaign, providing pro-bono legal assistance. For that work he received WABA's Vision Zero Award in 2015. Virginia is now only one of four states with contributory negligence laws. We think it's time for a change.

Surviving The Crash: Your Legal Rights in a Bicycle Accident
By Bruce Deming
Come join local bike advocates, bike racers, bike commuters and recreational riders to celebrate the exciting launch of our new cycling book, and lend support to Bikes for the World.
Cycling has never been more popular in the DC area, thanks to the tireless advocacy of our friends committed to making our community one of the most bike-friendly anywhere. But with the increase in cycling has come an increase in the number of accidents involving cyclists.
Whether you have ever been in a bike crash or not, what you don’t know about your rights can hurt you, but what you do know can save you. That’s why Bruce wrote this book, to provide all members of the cycling community with important information they need to make sure their rights are protected.
**Discount craft beers will be available, and fabulous door prizes including gift certificates for Road ID bracelets and Gripped Films DVDs, will be raffled to benefit Bikes For The World. All attendees will receive free copies of the new book, as well as complementary water bottles and other cool swag**
There will be fun people at this event from every corner of the cycling community, so come on out and join us!
