Driver Plows Into Cyclists

I was planning to talk about this on the show tonight, but in light of the flood of emails I have received, the horrific nature of the crash, and in light of the Cupertino and Sydney incidents, I decided to post this on the site.

The following horrific photo from the Associated Press shows the exact moment a drunk driver plowed into the peloton at a bike race in Mexico yesterday. The driver, Juan Campos, was charged with killing Alejandro Alvarez and injuring a dozen others.

The racers were just 15 minutes into the 34 km road race between Playa Bagdad and Matamoros (just across the border from Brownsville, Texas).

KARE has video of the aftermath.

UPDATE: Check out these photos on Flickr.

Masiguy is on the Mend

I have been remiss in not updating you on the status of my friend and fellow Spokesmen, Tim ‘Masiguy‘ Jackson.

As you can see from this photo, Tim went home from the hospital and he was smiling. Check out his blog and podcast for full details, but suffice it to say that he is home, he is on the mend, he is drinking his beloved coffee, and he will make a full recovery.

For those of you who lambaste me for being a helmet nazi, I suggest you take a look at the following picture of Tim’s helmet after the crash. Had Tim not been wearing his helmet, he just may not have survived the crash. Be smart, wear you helmet. On every ride.
