UNLESS YOUR BICYCLE IS MADE FROM TREES AND ROCKS, YOU BIKE ON NON PAVED SURFACES AND YOU BIKE BASICALLY NAKED -UM- YES YOU ALSO POLLUTE. 50% OF THE BIKE IS OIL BASED. 80% OF THE ASPHALT ROAD YOU RIDE ON IS OIL BASED. I AM QUITE SURE THAT YOU’RE BIKE COSTUME IS 99% OIL BASED. ALL OF THE FACTORIES THAT MAKE THESE ALL POLLUTE TO SOME DEGREE AND YOU THE COMSUMER PROMOTE THIS.

Time- you are a idiot….and easily baited idiot I might add

It’s the middle of effing February…get a car!

What a ridiculous argument. Production of Autos consume far more resources than bikes and the car only last 10 years at the most. A bike can last a lifetime and the roads are already (for cars) there. We all have to wear cloths in this society and most importantly bikes do not consume millions of gallons of fossil fuel daily.The most dangerous thing on the road (the car) should have the highest degree of responsibility. Think biking in the winter is unsafe? No, driving your car and getting no exercise is far more haserdous to your health. Lets hope this bicyclist heals to ride again. Stop hating Bikes and share the road.
Life is short, love not hate.

“and alcohol does not appear to have been a factor.”

Why report things that are NOT a factor?

Was the weather NOT a factor?
Was the lighting NOT a factor?
Was meth-amphetamine NOT a factor?

Geez, do you people ever READ what you write?

Didn’t your mother teach you to keep your toys in the yard? All bicyclists are just asking for it. I laugh out loud, and it brightens up my day, everytime I see a story of a cyclist getting hit! It is just a great way to start my day!! By the way, those tights do not make you go faster, they just make you look like a dork.

“driving your car ” is “haserdous (hazardous) to your health.” ??
And riding your bikey in traffic is healthy? You are a child in an undersized man’s body.
