Haven’t posted in sometime as I wasn’t really doing much. Trying to heal, trying to keep my wits about me. Other than that, I’ve been biking, biking and when I’m not biking, you can find me on my bike. I’m beginning to love that discipline and it also keeps me in shape while I figure out what’s wrong with my achilles/calves.
However....right now I’m sitting in an airport. I’m on my way to Denver to visit two friends that were struck by a car while riding their bikes. Both are in very rough shape. One is laying in ICU when she should be getting ready to travel to Australia to compete in the USATriathlon World Championships. Needless to say that trip will not happen. The other is sitting in ICU in a coma, he is also an amazing athlete winning races of all sorts, from snow-shoeing to triathlon.
Not sure why I’m sharing, Maybe to make people more aware of the dangers out there, not only as a cyclist but as a driver. The issue is not about issuing blame and pointing fingers as any one of us could’ve been on those bikes as well as behind that wheel. Guess I’m just asking for people to become more cognizant of their surroundings. Please.
It’s been a while...
