    update to accident report

    Update to my the accident I passed yesterday. I rode with a group today and quite coincidentally, the ride leader was in the group at the accident scene. Turns out, it was NOT a vehicle-bicycle accident, but the cyclist's wheel got into a longitudinal rut in the road. He was seriously injured (broken collar bone) and will need a couple of months to recover.

    Still a very chilling reminder to pay attention on the road.

    I had looked for info on local news websites after you posted it and hadn't found anything, so thank you for posting an update azfiddle. Sounds like the rider will be ok with time, so I'm glad to hear that.

    (Did you ride with the Cactus club? I overslept.... )

    Yes, I rode to the Mission with the Cactus Club, and Eddie, the leader had actually been riding with the guy who had the accident- that's how I found out what happened. What are the odds?
