Another Cycling Death

I really hate the first post of 2010 to be a sad/negative one, but a friend of mine from Miami sent me a post of a blog about a terrible incident in Miami yesterday. I stupid/drunk motorist ran over a cyclist who was riding in a bike lane on the causeway to Key Biscayne. Its a really popular causeway and one I rode a few years ago when I took my bike to Florida on a trip. This kind of think makes me sick. Some cycling accidents with cars are not always as blatantly horrible as this. All of them are sad but this one really stings the cycling community. Look at the mugshot of this person and you can see someone who just has bad attitude. God Bless this family and God help the person who hit him understand what he has done. Every cyclist who rides on the road knows the dangers. But its still sad when it happens to one of us. http://miamibikescene.blogspot.com/2010/01/cyclist-killed-on-rickenbacker-causeway.html
