let's be careful out there

Unfortunately, two local cyclists died after being struck by a truck yesterday (Wednesday). Read Dave's post about it here. The Gazette article, with the can of worms opened up in the comments section, can be seen here.

I always feel a loss when local athletes are lost like this. I will be biking to work tomorrow in their honor.

Same thing happened in SLC on the news blog thing after my cousin was purposely run over by a delivery truck at 1am on a Saturday. If they ever find the driver they'll get attempted murder. Unfortunately we think the f*cker got away, fortunately my cousin survived.

Here's an article of an update on my cousin: http://www.slugmag.com/article.php?id=1092&PHPSESSID=9857c861465f3ad9d0d1be86b3c21e74 He has since had his bladder surgery and is doing well.

Wow, not sure if that article is true, since it mentions "Salt Lake City's thriving underground scene," but I'm glad your cousin is getting better.
