very sad, from what I read she was quite active in the cycling community.

Be on the lookout for the car (black, damage on right passenger door side). I hope they catch the guy. :mad:

How very awful! It makes me sick and scared just to read about it. Could happen anywhere. I was hit from behind by a hit and run driver summer of 2004 but came out ok. The driver was never found. I've always wondered if they'd have searched more diligently if my outcome had been worse.........
I cannot understand how anyone can just drive away from an accident!!!!!
