John Forester (cyclist)
John Forester (born 7 October 1929) is an American industrial engineer specializing in bicycle transportation engineering. A noted cycling activist, he is known as "the father of vehicular cycling", and for creating the Effective Cycling program of bicycle training along with its associated book of the same title. His published works also include ''Bicycle Transportation: A Handbook for Cycling Transportation Engineers''.
==Early life==
Born in East Dulwich, London, England, Forester is the elder son of the writer and novelist C. S. Forester and his wife Kathleen. He moved with his family to Berkeley, California, in March 1940 and attended public schools there until after his parents' divorce, when he finished high school at a preparatory school on the East Coast.〔Forester, John. (My history ) Forester Website. Accessed November 1, 2007.〕 Thereafter, he attended the University of California at Berkeley,〔 starting as a physics major, but graduating with a Bachelor's degree in English in August, 1951. Following a brief stint in the U.S. Navy in the early 1950s during the Korean War, Forester eventually settled in California to become, as he describes, "an industrial engineer,〔(【引用サイトリンク】work=Board of Professional Engineers, Land Surveyors and Geologists )〕 a senior research engineer, a professor, and, of all things, an expert in the science of bicycling".〔
In April 1966, Forester's father died. The unexpectedly large estate, its contents, and its disposition proved to Forester that his father, whom he had loved and admired, had consistently lied to him for years, and strongly suggested evidence of another secret life. That discovery was a traumatic experience, and led to his two-volume biography of his father, ''Novelist and Story Teller: The Life of C. S. Forester''.〔. (Publisher's excerpt )〕
