But i think drivers should remember to be careful when driving on the path / road. I hope those cyclist would be really okay. Plus, some cyclist have good luck; they don't get a hit and managed to cycle on the other side of the path. Cyclist and drivers must be very careful on the road! Be happy, Stay happy! -Jositia hi my name is jositia,

I bet the LOSER didn't have a job either! That guy should be SHOT, STABBED, and HUNG… it still wouldn’t be enough punishment. I bet the LOSER didn’t have a job either!

Cars are lethal machines. We aren't safe out there; we'll always lose in any accident. That this happened in a race just makes it more horrible because even in an organized event like this, you aren't safe from the incompetents in motor vehicles. Be extra careful out there, whether riding or racing! -Karen Burwell Beyond sad, it’s heartbreaking and hideous. Cars are lethal machines.
