I write this blog as a bit of a release, and today I need to release something more on the serious side.

As a cyclist who was recently in an accident, and has been unable to ride (or even walk without assistance of a cane) for the last Month, two things have touched me dearly.

1. The death of 2 amazing cyclists in the bay area that were hit by a Sheriff, who is claiming to have “fallen asleep.”

Read a story here. There are many more links at SJ Mercury to get more info if you’re so inclined… it’s quite sad, fair warning.

2. And on a lighter note… please support SWRVE, a cycling clothing company, whom I believe to be good people, as I have personally been affected by the amazing care for their customers.

It has been an emotional day, as the details of the fallen continues to filter in… please keep the families in your thoughts, prayers, or whatever method you choose. I’m sure they’re grateful.

Back to the funny on another post… but for now…

Rest In Peace, my fellow cyclists.

Rubber side down, all.
