Oh wow. That was sad and yeah, I'm crying.

It amazes me how often you see people doing stupid things on a bike... Last weekend I went out with a friend who was visiting the area (she was one of my bridesmaids) and so went over to another friend's house where she was staying. While travelling there, there was a woman riding towards me on her mountain bike and she didn't have a helmet. What *was* nutty (other than no helmet) was she also carrying a cup of coffee *AND* she was talking on her cell phone... all while riding in the opposite direction of traffic on her bicycle without a helmet.

She also then decided to cut across traffic and go on a side road. I just thought "She's an accident waiting to happen."
