bright clothes bicyclers often wear. “The second is
that you find out about your body, your cardiovas-
cular system. The last thing is you have a
machine that you have to worry about, and it's a
neat machine.” ;
Fitness is what hooked John Ochman of Shav-
ertown into cycling.
“I have a desk job and wanted to do something
and get some exercise,” said Ochman. He began
riding a little last year, and this year attended
clinics in the spring presented by Bob Kelley of
Wilkes-Barre. Now he leads rides on the week-
ends.
While riding with the club, Kelley and other
members are quick to give essential pointers to
newcomers, like how to pedal.
Instead of laboring over each stroke in a diffi-
cult gear, experienced cyclists choose a gear in
which their legs move quickly with little effort, a
- 1; technique they call spinning.
They learn to ride behind one another so the
lead cyclist cuts through the air for all of them,
and they learn to watch out for hazards like holes
in the road and opening car doors.
Legally, bicycles are classified as vehicles, and
have to obey all traffic laws, though they are al-
lowed to ride two abreast. Some cyclists don't
follow the rules and weave all over the road, said
Kelley, giving a bad reputation to all cyclists.
When riding on the road, the cyclists have to be
A ~extra careful. And helmets are an absolute must.
“Everybody should wear a helmet,” said Hugh
King, 68, of Dallas, owner of the Recyclery on
Main Street in Dallas and an avid bicyclist. “The
reason is if you fall off and scramble your brains

reed that the facility was a busi-
mess operating as aboarding house
and with the consent of the super-
visors, filed an objection to the
of times and they saved my life.”
King has been active in cycling since he moved
to the area from New York in 1965.
Several years ago he won an award from the
"club for the most miles ridden on club rides.
Though he recently broke his leg in the first
serious bicycle accident of his life, he expects that
he and his wife Carol will both be back pedaling
next year. :
“Everybody should have something to keep
them in condition, otherwise you deteriorate,”
said King. “You can fall apart very quickly,
especially lying in bed. Nothing is worse.”
King says bicycling has it all over jogging or
running for keeping in shape.
“It’s (jogging) too slow. Also, as you get older, it
creates a lot of damage in the knees and that
damage is sometimes not very easy to fix,” he said.
“You can get the same high as you can from
jogging or running from bicycling.”
And you can travel farther bicycling than while
jogging.
“This is a beautiful area. There's many interest-
ing places you'll see while bicycling that you'll
never see while riding around in a car.”

“The residents say they have no
‘problem with the men, that they
are not prejudiced but object be-
complaints against the men living
in the home. It's a boarding house
so thus it is a business. If one
business is allowed to stay in an R-
1 area, just think how many other
individuals could open a business.
The latest development in the
action was a request from the
Institute asking the zoning board
to continue the August 20 hearing
until after the request for the pre-

Federal Court. A
No postponement had been
agreed on by the zoning board at

Recently, the Institute through
its attorney, Atty. John Kennedy
filed an appeal to the township's
claim that the group home was a
business. That appeal will be heard
before the zoning board at its
August 20 meeting at the munici-
pal building on Route 309.
Atty. James Geddes, solicitor
for the townhip zoning board, said
he will not sit with the zoning
board to hear the appeal.
“l am withdrawing from the
August 20 meeting due to the fact
that I am associated with Attorney
Townend. The board will have to
use another attorney because for
