Oh wow, Blueberry, thank you for posting Pamela's blog -- we'd followed her touring blogs for a long time but lost touch and had no idea she'd had such a serious accident. How awful -- thank goodness she is ALIVE. But her thoughts about all the distracted drivers do echo what everyone else has been saying on this and other threads here. It's a real problem, and as a result, I'm enjoying trail riding (like the Michelson, which we were fortunate enough to ride for three days here in South Dakota in the past week+) more than road riding these days, and doing more of it. I don't know how much more road riding I see in my future, to be honest.
