One was on a major road and lots of people saw and honked their horns at me. I just got up dusted myself off and waved. I would say that riding my bike on my mission got me addicted to cycling. Thanks for shareing the story. I served in the Phoenix Arizona Mission and had my fair share of crashes. One was on a major road and lots of people saw and honked their horns at me.

I understand your concern over the British FC-FC branch name being FC-FC/UK as it seems to be a slight inversion of another word that might cause issues for some...but is there a better play on words for an FC-FC? And besides, UK residents will also see it also as another play on names as there is a store here in the UK called French Connection and they have branded their shirts with FC/UK... Just sayin. ;) Genghis Khan…

I too was involved in a crash with my companion in Denmark. He looked worse than he was and a kind motorist stopped and called an ambulance explaining that two Americans had crashed their bikes and one needed help. My companion, still woozy from the cracked helmet, was able to summon the strength to speak up and say. . . . "I am from Canada." Great story.
