    none of us are immune ... here in Lynchburg, VA, a heart surgeon, Dr. John Bell, was killed Saturday, May 26, 2007, by a women in a Toyata mini van. no details as of yet, seems the driver is connected to "money", while the cyclist is a prominent doctor in our Lynchburg, VA community, so details are slow and sketchy.

    what i do know is he was a wonderful doctor, family man with children, and an avid cyclist. he will be missed!!

    Oh, I'm sooooo sorry! This makes me so sad! Every cyclist down breaks my heart all over again.

    Our first 4 Share the Road signs were delivered on Friday after we left town for the Horsey. I opened the boxes and ran my hands across the signs remembering everything. I don't know if it will make any difference at all but it's something to do to channel the anger and grief.
