Please be aware of your surroundings when overtaking cyclists. Share the road.

Yesterday while out riding, I was hit by a car. The car was overtaking a cyclist on the other side of the road and drove head-on straight into me at high speed. I feel so lucky to be alive. I was taken by ambulance to hospital, where it appears I fractured my patella and broke my radius, as well as needing quite a few stitches. I had surgery late last night. I’m just so grateful to still be here to write this. It could have been so much worse.

Cyclist… The one thing that brings pedestrians and drivers together via mutual hatred.

Meh, it could just as easily be the name of a drug that helps decrease the thick toenail problem you've been having.

Don't ride on a 45 mph rode when your mode of transportation tops out at 20

Or cyclist could ride closer to the edge so that you’re not hit by a car passing a cyclist in the opposite side of the road.

She's been a bit beaten up from the front after the accident. I would hit it from the back endo.

Play that card if you like, but we all know that bicyclists belong on the sidewalk with all the other children and their toys.
