VIDEO: Introducing the Roving Cyclist
Jeff Lemieux, Patch's Roving Cyclist, shows you a safe route a local bike shop.
Longtime Proteus Bicycles customer Jeff Lemieux has been a recreational cyclist for quite some time. But things got more serious after his wife bought a "really cool bike" at Proteus, forcing him to up the ante himself.
Now, Lemieux has gone from casual rider to biking machine, and currently commutes from his home in Greenbelt to his office in downtown D.C. almost every day.
Lemieux recently bought a GoPro Hero sport camera at REI, and decided to use his newfound video making skills to show cyclists how they can successfully (and safely) navigate the streets of College Park.
