helmets

Just walked past a pretty serious traffic accident at 10th and Charnelton (around 2:05 pm) involving a bicyclist and a motor vehicle. The bicyclist was immobilized and taken away in an ambulance.

Ironically I was dropping off my bike at Hutch's Bike Shop for repair when the accident occurred, so I didn't witness it. I won't have my bike back for another week, but this is a handy reminder, even though it's really hot out for November, to always remember to wear your helmet and practice extra caution (whether your in a car or riding a bike). Even on a pleasant day like today can horrific accidents happen.
