Another biker was killed this week, only 2 weeks after Portland's
last fatal bike accident. He was in a bike lane, and wearing a helmet... and it happened pretty close to where I live. You can read the story
here, and see a little memorial to him
here. He worked at the Bike Gallery (which is where I saw Colin Meloy) and helped me pick out my bike lights when I was in there. Both bikers were crushed by trucks making a turn, and both were way, way, way too young to die (she was 19, he was 31). Ugh :(

be careful on your wheels! at least, careful as you can, and watch out for loose cannon drivers. it's so sad that those people died because someone else can't drive. :(
