Bike crash safety lawyer Landau makes front page of Connection Newspaper
After donating coloring books for children so they could learn about bike safety, Herndon bicycle lawyer Doug Landau found himself on the front page of the Connection Newspaper. Participating in the second annual Wheel to Work Day, which took place on the Herndon Town Green, Landau answered questions about bike safety, bicycle laws and helped bikers try his Kestral, Powercranks and Pyroplatforms.
