Here's a link to a news article I just saw. This town is not far from me and I go through there often. It has nice paths for joggers, cyclists, and golf carts. Sadly, a cyclist and golf cart tangled tuesday afternoon and the cyclist died this morning from their injuries. They were wearing a helmet. May our prayers be with his family at this time. Jennifer

Wow, he was 64
Looks like, from the letters underneath the article, that this is a blind danger spot... why don't those with the power in these kind've places get out and put up warning signs or trim foliage to ensure greater visibility... surely everyone wants to minimise every possible risk? I just don't understand...
So very sad...
Courage does not always roar. Sometimes, it is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying,
"I will try again tomorrow".

I agree, this city is political and affluent so I bet something should be done. It was a bad accident. There have been other instances on those trails as well as kids riding carts to school w/o valid drivers liscenses, drunk cart drivers etc. The police in that city are top notch in arresting sex criminals, so the powers that be need to make the trails safe for everyone and everyone use caution and not be complacent as to they are the only ones using the trails.
