Hello,

I started this blog just for the hell of it after reading a few blogs from fellow cyclist friends of mine. Their blogs got me interested in what I might have to say and how often I might say it. These posts will not be strictly about cycling, that was just a title for the blog that came to mind as I was filling out the necessary info......I might change it later. Some of my interests that might get written about on this blog are in no particular order....Cycling, Photography, Food, Working Out ( as opposed to cycling), movies, & trips that I have taken or might take in the future.
Thanks for checking in. If I write something you don't agree with, that's okay. These are my thoughts, not yours.

OUCH!!!!

MOTORCYCLE DOWN

    While I was out today I saw a guy get hit on his motorcycle. I think the guy on his left moved over and cut him off. I didn't see the accident until he was already going down on the ground. Looked like he took a pretty good tumble. I know I was doing about 45 at that time and he was probably doing the same. I actually chased after the guy who hit him because, for a moment, it looked like he was going to flee the scene. More likely he was jsut startled and going to the driveway at the Home Depot to turn around and go back to the accident. He was a young kid and he probably just didn't see the biker. That is one of the most dangerous things about riding in a city. I feel bad or the guy but I still believe that the rider can prevent the majority of the accidents we are in if we pay attention to the other drivers intentions and err on the safe side and give them plenty of room. God be with him.
